The Enforcement Directorate (ED) told the court on April 18 that despite having type 2 diabetes, Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal is consuming high-sugar foods like mangoes and sweets daily, to create grounds for medical bail.
Kejriwal's lawyer on April 19 dismissed ED's claims as 'petty' and 'ridiculous,' stating that out of 48 meals received, only 3 included mangoes. He argued that mangoes have lower sugar content than rice. Let's compare the sugar levels in mangoes with other common fruits:
