Kejriwal reportedly told Jung to conduct the Assembly elections immediately.

The apex court gave both parties two weeks to file their affidavits.
The case will again be heard on Apr 14.

The apex court asked the Centre to file its reply within four weeks.
The AAP on Feb 20 moved the Supreme Court against the Centre's decision to impose President's Rule in Delhi and place the Assembly under suspended animation.

The Union Cabinet on Feb 15 recommended President's Rule in Delhi and suspended animation of the Delhi Assembly.
