Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal has requested Justice Swarana Kanta Sharma to recuse herself from hearing his plea, citing concerns over judicial impartiality in the liquor policy case.
The request comes after earlier rulings by the same bench in related matters, with the defense arguing this may create a perception of pre-determined bias.
This move introduces a key procedural twist, as the court must first decide on the validity of the recusal plea before addressing the main excise policy case.
The development has triggered widespread debate in legal circles and on social media, reflecting rising tensions around the high-profile case.
