“Triumph Of Truth”: Hemant Soren On “Elder Brother” Arvind Kejriwal’s Bail | EnvoyPost

Jharkhand Chief Minister Hemant Soren on Friday welcomed the Supreme Court’s decision to grant bail to Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal in the excise policy ‘scam’, terming it the “triumph of truth” and “defeat of lies”.

The top court earlier in the day granted bail to the AAP chief in a corruption case lodged by the CBI in connection with the ‘scam’.

“Today, truth has triumphed, defeating lies and conspiracy. Jharkhand Johar (greetings) to elder brother Arvind Kejriwal,” Mr Soren said in a post on X.

झूठ और षड्यंत्र को हराकर, आज फिर सच विजयी हो गया….

दिल्ली के माननीय मुख्यमंत्री बड़े भाई श्री @ArvindKejriwal जी को झारखण्डी जोहार!

Mr Kejriwal was arrested by the ED in a money laundering case linked to the ‘scam’ on March 21. He was granted interim bail by the top court in the case.

However, he was arrested by the CBI on June 26 in a separate excise policy case, while he was still in Tihar Jail under judicial custody.

Mr  Kejriwal’s bail comes as a big boost to the Aam Aadmi Party, which is seeking to make forays in Haryana and Jammu and Kashmir in the coming elections, and also gearing up to retain power in Delhi where polls are due early next year.
