Delhi News: Kejriwal Withdraws SC Plea After CBI Arrest, HC Stays Bail

Breaking News: In a significant development in the ongoing Delhi Excise Policy case, Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal has withdrawn his plea from the Supreme Court challenging the Delhi High Court’s order staying his bail in the matter. This decision comes just hours after the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) arrested him on Sunday.

What happened:

The CBI arrested Kejriwal on Sunday morning following allegations of irregularities in the implementation of Delhi’s Excise Policy 2021-22.
Kejriwal was subsequently granted bail by the Rouse Avenue Court.
However, the Delhi High Court stayed this bail order, citing the need for a detailed investigation.
In response, Kejriwal’s legal team approached the Supreme Court seeking to overturn the High Court’s decision.
However, the Chief Minister’s team has now withdrawn the plea from the Supreme Court.

Implications:

This development puts Kejriwal in a difficult legal position, as the stay on his bail remains in effect.
He will now have to remain in custody until the CBI completes its investigation and the court decides on the next steps in the case.
The withdrawal of the Supreme Court plea suggests a strategic decision by Kejriwal’s legal team, possibly aimed at focusing on legal proceedings at the High Court.

Public Reactions:

This news has sparked intense reactions across social media platforms.
Supporters of Kejriwal are expressing outrage and accusing the BJP-led central government of political vendetta.
Meanwhile, BJP supporters are highlighting the seriousness of the allegations and calling for a fair and thorough investigation.

What’s next:

The CBI investigation will continue, and it remains unclear how long it will take to reach a conclusion.
The Delhi High Court will now hear the case regarding the stay on Kejriwal’s bail.
The future course of action will be determined by the court’s decision and the outcome of the investigation.
