Former chief minister Arvind Kejriwal on Monday appeared in person in the Delhi High Court seeking recusal of Justice Swarana Kanta Sharma from hearing the CBI petition challenging the discharge of the AAP convenor and all other accused in the liquor policy case. Justice Sharma took Kejriwal’s application on record and listed it for hearing on April 13. 

Kejriwal asserted that he would argue the recusal application himself and would exercise his “legal rights” on the aspect of being represented by a lawyer subsequently.  Solicitor General Tushar Mehta, appearing for the CBI, argued that the court was not a forum for theatrics.
