Arvind Kejriwal’s health did not stop him from campaigning: ED to Delhi court

The Delhi Court has asked the Enforcement Directorate (ED) to respond to Delhi Chief Minister and Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) leader Arvind Kejriwal’s bail plea. The Supreme Court of India had granted Kejriwal interim bail in the Delhi liquor policy scam case until June 1.

On Thursday, Additional Solicitor General SV Raju, representing the ED, opposed Kejriwal’s bail plea, stating that the Delhi CM was “healthy” enough to campaign in Punjab for the Lok Sabha elections.

Kejriwal has been instructed to return to Tihar Jail on June 2 but has requested a week’s extension of his bail.
