The Supreme Court on Friday in the Arvind Kejriwal case confirmed that bail conditions restricting a political leader from political activities and public rallies amount to a breach of fundamental rights.
To reach this conclusion, a Bench of Justices Sanjiv Khanna and Dipankar Datta referred to the very judgments quoted by the Directorate of Enforcement (ED) against Mr. Kejriwal.
One of these judgments happened to concern former Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister Chandrababu Naidu’s case. In this case, the top court had deleted the bail condition restricting his political participation.
