Lieutenant governor V K Saxena has given sanction to the Enforcement Directorate to prosecute Aam Aadmi Party chief Arvind Kejriwal in the excise policy case. This comes just a month before assembly elections in Delhi.
According to the CBI and the ED, irregularities were committed while modifying the excise policy and undue favours were extended to the licence holders.
The Delhi government implemented the policy on November 17, 2021, and scrapped it by the end of September 2022 amid allegations of corruption.
