The Nationalist Congress Party (NCP SP) president Sharad Pawar on Friday said that the bail granted to Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal proves that the foundation of democracy in the country is still strong, reported the PTI.

The Supreme Court on Friday granted bail to Kejriwal in the corruption case lodged by the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) in connection with the alleged excise policy scam, saying prolonged incarceration amounts to unjust deprivation of liberty.
