According to officials, the Delhi Police has issued a traffic advisory for the national capital on Tuesday due to the counting of votes for the general elections.

Traffic will be diverted from Bhopura Border, Tahirpur T-Point and Gagan Cinema T-Point. The advisory said that Wazirabad Road (Mangal Pandey Road) will be closed for general traffic from 5 am.

Excise policy matter: Supreme Court to hear Sisodia’s bail plea on Tuesday

Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) leader Manish Sisodia has approached the Supreme Court challenging the Delhi High Court’s decision dismissing his bail plea in cases registered by the ED and the CBI related to the alleged liquor policy scam.

According to the cause list put on the Supreme Court website, a vacation bench of Justices Arvind Kumar and Sandeep Mehta will hear Sisodia’s plea on Tuesday.

On May 21, the Delhi High Court rejected Sisodia’s bail pleas in separate cases filed by the Enforcement Directorate (ED) and the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI), dealing a major blow to the former deputy chief minister, according to PTI. In its verdict, the high court cited grave abuse of power and breach of public trust by Sisodia.

The high court said Sisodia’s act was a “gross betrayal of democratic principles” and added that he allegedly destroyed crucial evidence, including electronic records.
