The Supreme Court will hear Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal's bail plea on Thursday in a corruption case related to the now-scrapped excise policy. Filed by the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI), the case questions Kejriwal's alleged involvement. The CBI opposed his bail, arguing his treatment can be managed in custody, dismissing claims of health concerns. The agency also asserted that the bail granted to co-accused, such as K Kavitha and Manish Sisodia, does not impact Kejriwal's plea. Kejriwal is seeking bail based on health reasons, while the CBI maintains that his arrest and legal proceedings should proceed without exception. The court's decision is awaited.
