News summary

The Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) has received approval to prosecute Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal and AAP MLA Durgesh Pathak in connection with the excise policy case. Kejriwal has been in judicial custody since March 21, with a hearing set for August 27 to review his status. The CBI claims that Kejriwal's evasive responses during questioning necessitated his arrest, asserting his pivotal role in orchestrating decisions related to the alleged corruption in the now-scrapped excise policy. Furthermore, the CBI has filed a supplementary chargesheet against Kejriwal, who is contesting the legality of his arrest in the Supreme Court, which has postponed his bail hearing to September 5. The case, rooted in allegations of irregularities in Delhi's liquor policy, has significant implications for the political landscape in the region and the Aam Aadmi Party's future. Kejriwal's arrest has sparked considerable public and political discourse, raising questions about governance and accountability in Delhi.
