In a recent session at the Delhi High Court, Justice Swarana Kanta Sharma acknowledged former Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal's strong legal arguments while he requested her recusal from the liquor policy case. The hearing, which lasted from 2:30 PM to 7 PM, saw Kejriwal contesting the judge's prior decisions, claiming they indicated a bias against him. He noted that the judge had previously denied him relief in related matters, leading him to feel that he was nearly declared guilty. Despite the judge's compliment suggesting he could pursue a legal career, Kejriwal affirmed his commitment to his political role. The court has reserved its decision on the recusal request after considering submissions from all involved parties.
