Can CM Kejriwal also get bail like Manish Sisodia? Know what experts say

After Delhi’s former Deputy CM Manish Sisodia got bail from the Supreme Court, the hopes of legal relief for Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal also seem to be increasing. Sisodia has been released from jail in the Delhi Excise Policy case, which has proved to be a big relief for him and has also become a hope for the Aam Aadmi Party, which can also pave the way for Arvind Kejriwal’s release.

In this case, many legal experts believe that the Supreme Court’s decision to grant bail to Sisodia can also have a positive impact on Arvind Kejriwal’s case. According to senior advocate Siddharth Luthra, in Sisodia’s case, the Supreme Court has considered bail as the rule and jail as the exception. This approach reflects the pro-independence direction in CBI cases, which can also be beneficial for Kejriwal.

Delay in trial becomes the basis for bail
Senior advocate Sanjay Hegde expressed his opinion on this and said that the Supreme Court’s order in Sisodia’s case will affect Arvind Kejriwal’s case. He said that Kejriwal’s arrest has happened as a branch of Sisodia’s arrest, so Kejriwal can also benefit from the relief given to Sisodia.

Senior advocate Vikas Pahwa also says that Sisodia’s bail order will not only affect Arvind Kejriwal, but also other accused in the excise case. He said that the Supreme Court has considered the right to a speedy trial paramount, despite the stringent conditions under the PMLA.

Courts directed to conduct timely hearings
Senior advocate Sanjay Ghose has described the Supreme Court’s decision as an important milestone for the judiciary that bail should be the rule and not jail. The court has guaranteed the constitutional right to a speedy trial, which could be important for Kejriwal’s case.

Will Kejriwal get relief?
Many experts believe that this decision of the Supreme Court will also affect Arvind Kejriwal’s bail plea. According to advocate Tanya Srivastava, the basis for Sisodia’s bail was the right to a speedy trial, which can also be applicable in Kejriwal’s case.

However, it remains to be seen how much impact this decision of the Supreme Court will have on Arvind Kejriwal’s case. But legal experts believe that this has definitely increased his chances of getting relief. This decision of the Supreme Court has once again clarified the principles of bail and emphasized the need for speedy justice. Now it will be important to see whether Arvind Kejriwal is able to take advantage of the legal benefits of this decision.
