A Delhi court has dismissed two petitions filed by Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal, challenging summonses related to a money laundering investigation by the Enforcement Directorate (ED) concerning the Delhi Excise Policy 2021-22. The court found sufficient grounds to proceed against Kejriwal, who had failed to appear before the ED, leading the agency to seek court intervention after multiple summonses were ignored. Kejriwal's legal team argued that his absences were due to his responsibilities as Chief Minister, claiming he did not intentionally avoid the summons. However, the ED maintained that his non-compliance was evident, as he managed to attend other engagements. In a separate case, a court dismissed a plea against Samajwadi Party chief Akhilesh Yadav and AIMIM president Asaduddin Owaisi for allegedly spreading hatred regarding a disputed structure at the Gyanvapi Mosque, citing the allegations as not maintainable. Both cases reflect ongoing tensions in Indian politics involving key leaders and sensitive communal issues.
