A Delhi court on Monday sent Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal to judicial custody till April 15 after he was produced before Special Judge on expiry of his previously extended Enforcement Directorate (ED) custody in connection with the money laundering case related to the alleged excise policy scam.

AAP's national convenor Arvind Kejriwal had appointed Delhi minister Saurabh Bhardwaj as the party's in-charge for Odisha.

It is alleged that the Delhi government's excise policy for 2021-22 to grant licences to liquor traders allowed cartelisation and favoured certain dealers who had allegedly paid bribes for it, a charge strongly refuted by the AAP.

Earlier in the day, the House was adjourned for an hour after AAP candidates were elected to the post of Mayor and Deputy Mayor.
