Delhi Liquor Policy Case News Live Updates: Highlights

The Rouse Avenue Court’s decision to discharge Arvind Kejriwal and Manish Sisodia in the Delhi Excise Policy case marks a significant development in one of the most high-profile political investigations in recent years. The court held that the prosecution failed to substantiate allegations of a central conspiratorial role and found no criminal intent, particularly in Sisodia’s case.The CBI had accused 23 individuals, alleging that Rs 100 crore was paid to influence the excise policy. However, the defence successfully argued that Kejriwal was not named in the initial chargesheets and that no direct incriminating material linked him to the alleged conspiracy.The verdict triggered emotional reactions from Kejriwal and strong political statements targeting the BJP leadership. While the AAP termed the ruling a victory for truth and constitutional values, the CBI has decided to challenge the discharge before the Delhi High Court, ensuring the legal battle is far from over.
