Aam Aadmi Party's Sanjay Singh, incarcerated since October over an ED probe into Delhi's excise policy, won't be sworn in as Rajya Sabha MP. The Chairman cited the matter's referral to the Privileges Committee for denying Singh's oath-taking. Despite court permission, Singh remains incarcerated, with his interim bail plea dismissed. Singh's lawyer indicated his unpressed plea due to another court appearance. The ED is investigating alleged money laundering linked to Delhi's excise policy. AAP refutes allegations of favoritism in the policy. Singh's party colleague, Manish Sisodia, also faces imprisonment in the same case since March.
