In this article, the judicial status of Arvind Kejriwal, Chief Minister Delhi, will be discussed. Recent developments have pushed his arrest and subsequent detention by court into spotlight. Let’s take a look at all the key aspects of the case.

Arvind Kejriwal’s Getting ArrestedBy the CBI on June 26, the national convener of the Aam Aadmi Party, Arvind Kejriwal, was arrested. This arrest took place in the alleged Chitgate scam. Earlier, On March 21, he was also arrested by theED.
After the arrest, Kejriwal appeals his bail in the Supreme Court. He gets some relief from the Supreme Court, but still has to stay in prison pending trial CBI case.
Extension of Judicial CustodyThe Rouse Avenue Court extended Kejriwal’s judicial custody until September 11. This was combined with cognizance of the 4th supplementary charge sheet filed by the CBI. In addition to Kejriwal, other 6 accused were also charged.
It conclusively shows that there is enough evidence against Kejriwal in the judiciary. Special Judge Kaveri Babejan said that there is enough ground for further action.
Summons and next hearingThe Rouse Avenue Court has served summons ironically on Kejriwal and the other accused. Also summoned this time are Duges Pathak, Amit Arora, Vinod Chauhan, Asish Mathur and P Sarath Reddy. The hearing date for their next appearance is September 11, when we may see a turn in this prosecution.
CBI ApprovalThe CBI informed the court last month that they had obtained approval to prosecute Kejriwal and Durgesh Pathak. This information serves to increase the gravity of this case even further.
As a result, Kejriwal’s judicial custody has been extended and summons are also served to irgash pathak until this day of 6/11/12.

Bail plea in Supreme Court Turn
Kejriwal’s bail plea was accepted by the Supreme Court,but it was scheduled to be heard on September 5. This particular appeal is of very great significance for him, whether or not he gains relief from the Supreme Court change his chances of avoiding prison will multiply. Political impact
Arvind Kejriwal’s arrest exerts a major political influence. This incident could easily generate turmoil in Delhi politics. A mood of anxiety prevails among supporters of Aam Aadmi Party.
For that matter, political detention of leaders happened earlier too, but Kejriwal’s case is a little different. His arrest has polarized Delhi politics.
Public reaction
Since Kejriwal’s arrest, public reaction has also been mixed-the difference seems to be mainly from political standing. While some people think it a case of political revenge, others say it is only in accord with law and justice.
Aam Aadmi Party supporters in Delhi have staged protests, while opposition parties-including both some from the Left and Right- have approved of the arrest. This situation is raising new questions in Delhi politics.
Final thoughts
We must pull our thoughts immediately to the judicial situation of Arvind Kejriwal. His detention and then being on bail afterwards for long periods-a situation which so far is completely unresolved-at present are unsettling Delhi politics.
During the coming days, particularly around September 5 and 11, there may be decisive developments in this case. We have to wait and see whether Kejriwal gets relief or not.
