Delhi Excise Policy Case: Former Deputy Chief Minister of Delhi and Aam Aadmi Party leader Manish Sisodia has not got bail from the lower court in the money laundering case related to excise policy. Rouse Avenue Court refused to grant bail to Sisodia. Manish Sisodia will now appeal against this decision in the Delhi High Court. Manish Sisodia was arrested by the ED on March 9 in the Excise Policy case. The ED told the court that the investigation was at a critical stage and the senior AAP leader had prepared fabricated emails to show that the policy had received public approval. The ED said in the court that the opinion taken from the public was fake. Let us tell you that the Kejriwal government seeks opinion from the public before taking any important policy or any major step. For this, Arvind Kejriwal issues email and toll free numbers.
