What Happened
Delhi High Court Justice Swarana Kanta Sharma rejected recusal pleas from former Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal and others in the excise policy case Monday. The judge stated courts cannot recuse based on unfounded bias suspicions. She will proceed hearing the CBI's challenge against the trial court's discharge of all accused, including Kejriwal, unaffected by recusal applications.
