Delhi Court Acquits Arvind Kejriwal, Manish Sisodia & 21 Others in Excise Policy Case

All 23 accused, including other figures like K Kavitha, Vijay Nair, and various businessmen, were discharged on these grounds. The decision provides major relief to the AAP, which has long maintained that the case was politically motivated. Kejriwal, who spent several months in custody related to the matter, reportedly became emotional after the verdict, asserting that it vindicated his and his party's integrity. Sisodia, who endured a longer period of imprisonment before securing bail, also welcomed the outcome.

The CBI has indicated it will challenge the discharge order in the Delhi High Court. This ruling marks a key development in a case that has dominated Delhi politics for years, influencing public perception and electoral outcomes while highlighting debates over investigative agencies' roles in politically sensitive matters.​
