Arvind Kejriwal, the former Chief Minister of Delhi, has appeared in the Delhi High Court to seek the recusal of Justice Swarana Kanta Sharma from the ongoing liquor policy case. This request follows a CBI petition challenging the discharge of Kejriwal and others accused in the case. Solicitor General Tushar Mehta criticized the recusal petition as 'frivolous and vexatious,' arguing that the court should not be a platform for theatrics. Kejriwal has asserted his right to represent himself in this matter, stating he is ready to argue the application personally. The court has allowed the CBI to file a reply to the recusal application and has set the next hearing for Monday. This case stems from a CBI challenge to a trial court's earlier discharge of 23 individuals linked to alleged irregularities in the liquor policy. Justice Sharma had previously issued notices to the accused, indicating that some findings from the trial court appeared erroneous. The situation remains tense, with the court warning those who have not responded to the CBI's plea that their rights to submit replies could be closed soon.
