Former Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal on Monday (April 13, 2026) told Delhi High Court judge Swarana Kanta Sharma that her earlier decisions in the liquor policy cases “almost declared” him guilty and corrupt, and that he apprehends he would not get justice if she continues to hear CBI’s plea against his discharge.
Appearing before Justice Sharma to argue his application seeking her to withdraw from the case, the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) convenor contended that under the law on recusal, the question is not of a judge’s integrity or uprightness, but of “reasonable bias” in the mind of the litigant.
