Delhi High Court overturns Kejriwal rent relief ruling over press statement

On 2026-04-06, the Delhi High Court set aside an earlier single-judge ruling that had treated Arvind Kejriwal’s 2020 press-conference assurance on rent relief as enforceable. The Division Bench, in an appeal filed by the Delhi government, held that no mandamus could issue to enforce the statement. The decision concerned the Delhi government’s liability to implement the earlier assurance.
