Arvind Kejriwal News | Jail Not Bail: Has Kejriwal Have Gone From ‘Innocent’ To ‘Guilty’ | News18The Supreme Court of India on Monday, June 24, reserved its order on Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal’s plea opposing the Delhi High Court’s stay on bail granted by a trial court in a money laundering case linked to the now-scrapped excise policy. The apex court said it would like to hear the Delhi High Court’s verdict and scheduled the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) leader’s bail plea hearing for June 26.

Taking the fight to the ruling BJP-led NDA, Rahul Gandhi has accepted a decision by the Congress Working Committee and will take up the mantle of the Leader of the Opposition in the Lok Sabha. 

The decision comes hours before the first big battle of the 18th Lok Sabha, between a resurgent opposition and a diminished ruling coalition, over the post of Speaker. 

Denied an assurance that an opposition member would be given the post of Deputy Speaker, as is the tradition, the Congress and the INDIA bloc decided to force an election for the post of Speaker at the last minute by putting up K Suresh as its candidate against the BJP’s pick, Om Birla, who was the Speaker in the last Lok Sabha.
