In a startling revelation, the Enforcement Directorate (ED) has accused Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal of indulging in a high-sugar diet despite being diagnosed with type 2 diabetes. The claim surfaced during a court hearing before Special Judge Kaveri Baweja for CBI and ED cases. The court had earlier instructed Tihar jail authorities to submit a report detailing Kejriwal’s dietary habits.
According to the ED’s submission, Kejriwal purportedly consumes copious amounts of mangoes, sweets, and aloo puri on a daily basis. The agency alleges that this dietary pattern is a strategic move by Kejriwal to bolster his chances of securing medical bail. By exacerbating his health condition through the consumption of sugary foods, the CM is purportedly attempting to create a medical necessity for bail.
The allegations have sparked controversy and debate, with many questioning the ethics of exploiting one’s health condition for legal advantage. Meanwhile, Kejriwal’s camp has refuted the claims, stating that his dietary choices are not influenced by legal considerations but are rather personal preferences. As the case unfolds, it sheds light on the intersection of health, law, and political maneuvering in the public sphere.
