The Supreme Court will hear Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) leader Manish Sisodia's bail pleas on Monday in connection with corruption and money laundering cases related to the alleged Delhi excise policy scam.

The former deputy chief minister of Delhi is seeking bail, arguing that he has been in custody for 16 months and that the trial has not progressed since October last year. According to the Supreme Court's cause list for July 29, a bench of Justices B R Gavai and K V Viswanathan will hear Sisodia's pleas.

As per PTI, on July 16, the apex court agreed to hear the pleas and requested responses from the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) and the Enforcement Directorate (ED).

Sisodia has also filed an application seeking the revival of his bail petitions in the excise policy-related corruption and money laundering cases.

Delhi HC Order On Monday On Doctors' Plea Against Ramdev Over Coronil

The Delhi High Court will announce its decision on Monday concerning a plea filed by several doctors' associations against Yoga guru Ramdev for claiming that 'Coronil' is a "cure" for COVID-19.

According to PTI, this plea is part of a 2021 lawsuit by the doctors' associations against Ramdev, his associate Acharya Balkrishna, and Patanjali Ayurveda. Justice Anup Jairam Bhambhani had reserved the order on May 21 after hearing arguments from both sides.

The lawsuit asserts that Ramdev made "unsubstantiated claims" about 'Coronil' being a cure for COVID-19, despite the drug only being licensed as an "immuno-booster."

The senior counsel for the doctors requested an injunction to prevent Ramdev and others from making similar claims in the future.
