Court drops charges in liquor policy case
The remarks came soon after the Rouse Avenue Court’s decision to drop all charges against Kejriwal and former Deputy Chief Minister Manish Sisodia, along with 21 others, in the contentious liquor policy case, citing weak evidence and procedural flaws — a verdict that has stirred intense political debate nationwide.
Political reactions intensify
Yadav’s comments underscored his continued criticism of the BJP, arguing that the acquittal highlighted the alleged misuse of central agencies against opposition leaders.
He said the verdict was a blow to the BJP’s political narrative and lauded the court’s affirmation of justice, framing it as a message for upholding democratic principles ahead of upcoming elections.
