In today's legal proceedings, Justice Bela Trivedi, a Supreme Court judge, presided over a bench handling a petition filed by #ArvindKejriwal. However, Kejriwal withdrew his petition before the bench, marking a significant turn of events. Notably, Justice Trivedi had previously served on a bench addressing a petition from Hemant Soren.
Her extensive legal background includes serving as the Law Secretary in the Gujarat government under Prime Minister Narendra Modi's leadership. Currently, Justice Trivedi finds herself at the center of attention as the bail case of Umar Khalid is also under her jurisdiction. This case has faced multiple adjournments, raising questions about the frequent allocation of politically charged cases to her bench.
