Kejriwal celebrates Delhi HC transfer of excise policy case as truth wins

Kejriwal celebrates Delhi HC transfer of excise policy case as truth wins

Delhi High Court decided that Arvind Kejriwal’s excise-policy case will be heard by a different bench, following remarks from Justice Swarana Kanta Sharma. Kejriwal framed the move as “truth” triumphing, citing Mahatma Gandhi’s satyagraha. AAP leaders called it a “big victory,” while Atishi alleged the judge has effectively recused. Sharma, however, said she was not recusing herself—she was transferring the matter after initiating criminal contempt proceedings over allegedly “vilifying” social media posts.
