Arvind Kejriwal, the Aam Aadmi Party national convenor, will argue his own case in the Delhi high court next week over the recusal of Justice Swarn Kanta Sharma in the alleged excise policy matter.
Kejriwal has raised apprehensions of bias on the part of Justice Sharma and has sought her recusal from the case.
The Delhi high court had sought the CBI's response in the application filed by Kejriwal, and the matter is listed for hearing on April 13.
Earlier, Kejriwal had made a request to the High Court Chief Justice seeking the assignment of the case to another bench, but it was rejected.
This comes after the Delhi high court granted Kejriwal and others more time to respond to the Central Bureau of Investigation's plea challenging the release of Kejriwal and 22 others in the case.
