Delhi's Rouse Avenue Court has directed the registration of an FIR against former Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal in a case involving the misuse of government funds. Kejriwal is accused of misappropriating public money by putting up large hoardings for campaigning. The court has also instructed the police to submit a status report by March 18.

This latest case arises while Kejriwal is out on bail in the liquor scam case.

The Supreme Court granted him bail on July 12.
