Arvind Kejriwal (former Chief Minister of Delhi and Aam Aadmi Party national convenor) has personally argued for the recusal of Justice Swarana Kanta Sharma from the Delhi High Court in the ongoing excise policy case. He claims that Justice Sharma's attendance at four events linked to the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) raises concerns of bias, stating that it creates an apprehension of not receiving justice. During his arguments, Kejriwal emphasized that the court has treated the accused as 'guilty' despite a discharge order, referencing a previous ruling that supports his plea. He expressed concern over the speed at which his case is progressing compared to others, suggesting that this indicates political bias against opposition parties. Kejriwal also pointed out that the court's observations in previous hearings amounted to judgments, which he believes undermines the fairness of the proceedings. He criticized the court for sticking to earlier findings, which he argued contradict the trial court's conclusions, and raised issues regarding the principles of natural justice in recent orders.
