Delhi HC judge recuses from hearing contempt plea against Kejriwal, Sisodia over sharing courtroom clips

Delhi HC judge recuses from hearing contempt plea against Kejriwal, Sisodia over sharing courtroom clips A Delhi High Court (HC) judge has recused himself from hearing a petition, moved to seek contempt action against former Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal, Manish Sisodia and others. The contempt action has been sought against them for allegedly sharing clips of court room proceedings when Kejriwal's plea seeking recusal of Justice Swarana Kanta Sharma in the excise policy case was being heard. The PIL by advocate Vaibhav Singh was listed for hearing before a bench of Chief Justice DK Upadhyaya and Justice Karia, which directed that it be listed before another bench on Thursday. Recusing from hearing the case, the court said, “This matter will not be heard by this bench. List tomorrow before a bench of which one of us, Justice Tejas Karia, is not a member.” The petitioner's counsel had earlier requested that the matter be sent to another bench dealing with a similar case. Not just the AAP leaders, the other parties that are included in the PIL are the high court administration and social media giants Meta Platforms, X and Google. Justice Karia, a former partner at a leading law firm, represented Meta in several cases before his elevation as a judge. In the plea, advocate Vaibhav Singh submitted that sharing of court proceedings on social media can dilute the independence of the judiciary.
