In a significant turn of events, Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal has been granted bail in a money laundering case related to the now-scrapped excise policy. The decision led to jubilant celebrations among Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) workers and was hailed as a 'tight slap' on the face of the BJP.

Kejriwal, who had been in Tihar Jail for nearly 60 days, was released following the court's refusal to delay the bail order despite the Enforcement Directorate's request. The move is considered a morale booster for AAP, which has been grappling with the political fallout of Kejriwal's arrest.

This development comes at a crucial time as the party gears up for the Delhi Assembly elections. Senior AAP leaders, including Rajya Sabha MPs and Punjab Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann, echoed sentiments of triumph and relief, reinforcing the party's narrative that truth, though troubled, ultimately prevails.
