Chief Minister Kejriwal’s Health Concerns Spark Controversy in Legal Battle with Enforcement Directorate

Delhi Chief Minister, Arvind Kejriwal, finds himself at the center of a contentious legal battle involving the Enforcement Directorate (ED) and Tihar Jail over health concerns. Amid accusations of manipulating his diet for bail, the court is set to deliver its verdict on Monday.

During the recent court hearing, observations were made regarding a ‘deviation’ from Kejriwal’s prescribed diet and the actual meals being provided to him. The discrepancies in his diet have raised concerns over his health and ongoing medical treatments.

Arvind Kejriwal filed a fresh plea on Friday, seeking access to necessary medications, including insulin, and requesting brief consultations with his doctor. The ED has alleged that Kejriwal is intentionally consuming foods that could raise his sugar levels to feign medical grounds for bail.

The Delhi Chief Minister’s health issues have become a focal point of the legal proceedings, with AAP MP, Sanjay Singh, accusing Prime Minister Narendra Modi and the Bhartiya Janata Party (BJP) of plotting against Kejriwal. Singh raised concerns over Kejriwal’s insulin access and the dissemination of misleading information.

The ED’s claims about Kejriwal’s dietary habits, despite his diabetic condition, have sparked a wave of controversy. Atishi, a Delhi minister, joined the discourse by accusing authorities of attempting to harm Kejriwal by withholding essential medical care.

The allegations and counter-allegations surrounding Kejriwal’s health and treatment in Tihar Jail have drawn attention to the broader political landscape. The Rouse Avenue Court remains a critical venue for determining the course of legal action in this high-profile case.
