US EditionKejriwal Triumphs: AAP Overcomes Trial by Fire in Excise Case
- Arvind Kejriwal and Manish Sisodia have moved the Supreme Court to seek urgent hearing on their challenge to the Delhi HC Chief Justice's refusal to transfer the CBI plea, filed under Article 32 for tomorrow.
- On March 11, Kejriwal and Sisodia asked the HC Chief Justice to reassign the case, citing 'grave apprehension' about Justice Sharma's impartiality and alleging prior orders were passed without hearing the accused.
- The CBI appealed the trial court's discharge, and on March 9, Justice Sharma issued notices and stayed actions involving 23 respondents, including Kejriwal and Sisodia.
- The development heightens tensions ahead of Justice Swarana Kanta Sharma's hearing and underscores AAP's tactic of contesting internal judicial assignments amid the high-profile corruption probe.
- The CBI petition is due before Justice Swarana Kanta Sharma on Monday, centring on the now‑scrapped 2021 Delhi excise policy that triggered CBI and ED probes.
