Kejriwal's release is seen as a boost not only for his party but also for the INDIA alliance. His wife, Sunita Kejriwal, a star campaigner for AAP in Gujarat and Delhi for the upcoming Lok Sabha elections, garlanded him upon his return.

The AAP chief outlined his plans for the next day, including a visit to a Hanuman temple in Connaught Place at 11 am and a press conference at the AAP office at 1 pm.

The Supreme Court's interim bail for Kejriwal includes conditions such as a prohibition on visiting the Office of the Chief Minister or the Delhi Secretariat. The court ruled that Kejriwal must surrender on June 2 and refrain from interacting with witnesses or making public comments on the case. He is also barred from signing official files unless necessary for clearance from the Lieutenant Governor of Delhi.
