Kejriwal's Bail and Resignation

Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal was granted bail by the Supreme Court after months of being detained in relation to the Delhi excise policy case. Upon his release, he unexpectedly announced his resignation, stating he wanted to seek the people's mandate to determine their trust in him amid corruption allegations. Kejriwal emphasized that his decision was meant to challenge the narrative that political figures should resign under pressure from rival parties, specifically accusing the BJP of manipulating situations to force resignations. He argued he could effectively govern from jail, signaling a broader message to other leaders facing similar circumstances.
