The Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) welcomed the Supreme Court’s decision to grant interim bail to party chief and Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal, terming it a “game changer” for the Opposition’s Lok Sabha campaign.
The Congress, which is fighting the election in alliance with AAP in five States, including the Capital, said the decision is a “victory” for the Indian National Developmental, Inclusive Alliance (INDIA) bloc.
The AAP chief walked out of Tihar Jail on Friday, hours after the Supreme Court granted him interim bail in the Delhi excise policy-linked money laundering case. He was arrested by the Enforcement Directorate on March 21 and sent to prison on April 1.
