Manish Sisodia and Satyendar Jain resign

After the Supreme Court rejected Delhi Deputy Chief Minister Manish Sisodia’s plea against his arrest by the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) in the liquor policy case, the two arrested ministers of Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal – Sisodia and Satyendar Jain – submitted their resignations. The development came after Sisodia was arrested on February 26 in the Delhi liquor policy case.
The Supreme Court on Tuesday refused to entertain Sisodia's plea challenging his arrest by the CBI and said that it will not interfere in the matter. The top court further asked his legal counsel Abhishek Manu Singhvi to approach the Delhi High Court.
