Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal on Sunday visited the residence of Dr Abhishek Manu Singhvi to express his gratitude.
Dr Singhvi represented Kejriwal in a crucial legal battle regarding the liquor policy, securing interim bail for the Chief Minister just before the Delhi Lok Sabha elections on May 25. Taking to social media platform X to express his appreciation, Kejriwal remarked, "Visited Dr Singhvi at his residence today to thank him and his team. It's because of him that I am able to campaign today. He has always been a source of strength for all of us". After Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal got interim bail on Friday, Abhishek Manu Singhvi in a post said that despite the government and BJP's intense legal efforts, "India's Most Wanted" was released within six weeks, leaving 21 days for election campaigning. "It is the strength of our demo that India's Most Wanted (per govt and BJP) is out in 6 weeks with 21 electioneering days left despite heaviest legal artillery rolled out by Govt. We must fight and never lose faith. Vivek Jain's assistance was invaluable and matchless. truth must triumph," Abhishek Manu Singhvi wrote in a post on X. The Supreme Court on Friday gave interim bail to the Aam Aadmi Party convenor till June 1. However, as per the terms of his bail, the Delhi Chief Minister cannot make any comment about his role in the Delhi liquor scam case. The Delhi CM was granted a 22-day reprieve, till June 1, on the condition that he shall not visit the Chief Minister's Office (CMO) or the Secretariat. As per the court order, Kejriwal was asked to furnish bail bonds of Rs 50,000 with one surety of the same amount. He was asked to surrender on June 2, which coincides with the final day of polling for the 18th Lok Sabha. The AAP supremo was arrested on March 21, after several hours of questioning in a now-scrapped liquor policy case. (ANI)
