Today, the Supreme Court granted bail to Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal in the excise policy case, overturning the Delhi High Court's earlier decision.

Justices Surya Kant and Ujjal Bhuyan were in agreement on this ruling.

Justice Bhuyan, however, expressed concerns regarding the timing and method of Kejriwal's arrest by the CBI, suggesting that the arrest might have been aimed at obstructing his bail in the Enforcement Directorate (ED) case

He said non-cooperation cannot mean self-incrimination. "And therefore, Kejriwal's arrest by the CBI on this ground was impermissible," he added.

"Bail is the rule, and jail an exception. All courts must ensure that the prosecution and the process of trial don't become a form of punishment in itself," he observed.
