Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal is set to visit the Hanuman Temple in Connaught Place on Saturday, following his conditional bail granted by the Supreme Court in the liquor policy case. His visit to the temple is scheduled for noon, and he will be joined by Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) leaders and supporters.
In a post on social media, Kejriwal announced his plan to visit the temple, saying, "Today at 12 noon, I will go to Hanuman Temple at Connaught Place to thank God and seek his blessings."
After his visit to the temple, Kejriwal will proceed to the AAP headquarters. During this visit, he is expected to address party leaders and workers, possibly discussing his future plans, including strategies for the Haryana elections.
Kejriwal was released from Tihar Jail on Friday, shortly after the Supreme Court granted him bail. The news of his release was met with a celebratory response from hundreds of AAP workers and leaders who had gathered outside the prison. Despite the rainy weather, they greeted him with cheers and slogans such as ‘Bharat Mata Ki Jai’ and ‘Vande Mataram’.
Following his release, Kejriwal expressed that his spirit remains strong and unshaken by his incarceration. He assured his supporters that he is more determined than ever to serve the nation.
The Chief Minister criticised the Centre, asserting that no imprisonment could dampen his resolve. He vowed to continue his fight against what he termed as anti-India forces with even greater intensity.
However, the Supreme Court has imposed certain restrictions on Kejriwal following his release. His powers have been notably limited; he is barred from visiting the Secretariat and signing official documents without the approval of the Lieutenant Governor. Furthermore, he is prohibited from making public comments on the case, interacting with witnesses, or accessing related official files.
Although he is out of jail, Kejriwal’s legal struggles in the liquor policy case are ongoing. The restrictions imposed on him highlight the serious nature of the case and his current legal constraints. Despite these challenges, Kejriwal remains resolute in his commitment to his role and responsibilities.
