Excise case: CBI moves Delhi HC to challenge lower court order discharging Kejriwal

The case originated from allegations surrounding the now-withdrawn Delhi Excise Policy 2021-22 introduced by the Aam Aadmi Party government. The CBI had alleged that the policy framework was tailored to benefit certain private players through reduced licence fees and predetermined profit margins, resulting in kickbacks and financial losses to the Delhi government.
