Delhi Excise Policy Case: Delhi's Rouse Avenue Court on Friday granted permission to former Deputy Chief Minister and Aam Aadmi Party leader Manish Sisodia to meet his ailing wife tomorrow. He is an accused in the cases pertaining to alleged irregularities in the now scrapped liquor policy in the national capital.

Sisodia, who was first arrested in the case in February, is facing two cases, one by the CBI and the other by the ED, which is probing the money laundering angle. Last month, the Supreme Court dismissed the bail partition of the AAP leader. His earlier bail applications were rejected by the High Court as well as the trial court. In June, however, the High Court granted him permission to meet his wife in custody.

The CBI has alleged that the 2021–22 excise policy of the AAP-led Delhi government, which granted licenses to liquor traders, favored specific dealers who allegedly paid bribes for the licenses. Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal denied these accusations, and the policy was subsequently revoked.
