The Delhi High Court has recently instructed Sunita Kejriwal, the wife of Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal, to remove a video of court proceedings from various social media platforms. This relates to the excise policy case, where Arvind Kejriwal, the national convenor of the Aam Aadmi Party, can be seen addressing a trial court.
A bench of justices Neena Bansal Krishna and Amit Sharma has taken notice of the matter and issued notices to six people, including Sunita Kejriwal, as well as social media intermediaries such as X, Meta, and Youtube. The court has also asked these intermediaries to remove any similar content if they come across it.
The court has taken an ex-parte interim order and has scheduled the next hearing for July 9. This decision was made during a petition filed by lawyer Vaibhav Singh. The petition claims that during Arvind Kejriwal's appearance in court on March 28 for his arrest in the Delhi excise policy case, he chose to address the court in-person. However, the video of the proceedings was shared on social media, which goes against the High Court of Delhi Rules for Video Conferencing for Courts, 2021.
According to the petition, the video was also reposted by Sunita Kejriwal and others, which is a violation of the rules. Therefore, the court has instructed Sunita Kejriwal to take down the video and has warned others against reposting it. The court has taken strict action against this matter, and it serves as a reminder for all individuals to adhere to the rules and regulations set by the court.
