Out On Bail Kejriwal Says “Courage Increased By 100 Times”

NEW DELHI (ANI) – Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal returned to his residence on Civil Lines Road on September 13 after being released from Tihar jail. Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) leaders, visibly elated, joined his family in welcoming him. His parents and wife, Sunita Kejriwal, greeted him with aarti and garlands in a joyful reunion.

Kejriwal held a roadshow from Chandgiram Akhara to his residence, where he declared, “The prison walls have increased my courage 100 times. My life is dedicated to the country.” He expressed gratitude to those who prayed for his release and criticized anti-national forces, vowing to continue his fight against them.

Kejriwal was released after the Supreme Court granted him bail in a corruption case related to the Delhi Excise Policy scam. His lawyers provided surety bonds before a special CBI judge, citing the court’s ruling. The Supreme Court granted bail, stating prolonged incarceration unjustly deprived him of liberty and imposed conditions, including that Kejriwal refrain from public comments on the case.

Initially arrested by the Enforcement Directorate on March 21, Kejriwal was granted interim bail on May 10. However, he surrendered on June 2 and was later arrested by the CBI while in custody.
