New Delhi: A Delhi court Friday listed bail plea filed by Delhi's former deputy chief minister Manish Sisodia for hearing on March 21.

The bail petition filed by Sisodia was due for hearing on Friday before special judge MK Nagpal.

Sisodia was already in Tihar jail here after he was sent to 14-day judicial custody by a CBI court on March 6 in a related case lodged by the Central Bureau of Investigation in connection with alleged corruption in the formulation and implementation of the excise policy for 2021-22. He was arrested by the CBI on February 26.
