Speaking to ANI, Hayer said, "This is a very happy moment for AAP that Manish Sisodia has been granted bail after 17 months. He has worked tirelessly to provide education to children and to elevate the issue to national importance."
He added, "Today, his truth has prevailed. The entire country, along with AAP supporters who know his reality, is celebrating. We are hopeful that in the coming days, Arvind Kejriwal will also return from jail, and AAP will resume serving the people of the country as before."
Earlier, Delhi Assembly Speaker Ram Niwas Goel thanked the Supreme Court after the bail was granted to Manish Sisodia.
While speaking to reporters on Friday as he arrived at the Delhi CM's residence, Speaker Goel dubbed Sisodia's release from jail a "victory of justice.". "This is the victory of justice. We are very thankful to the Supreme Court," Goel said.
AAP leaders Atishi and Sanjay Singh, among others, accompanied the former Deputy CM as he walked out of jail. Members of the RWA wing of the AAP and party workers were pictured outside Tihar Jail celebrating as Sisodia was released.
Sisodia credited the Constitution written by Babasaheb Ambedkar for his release and exuded confidence that Delhi CM Arvind Kejriwal will also walk out of jail soon.
"I have come out of jail due to your love, God's blessings and power of truth, and biggest of all, the dream of Babasaheb that if any dictatorial government comes to power and puts opposition leaders behind bars by forming dictatorial laws, then this country's Constitution will protect them," Sisodia said as he addressed the party workers soon after coming out of jail.
"I assure you that with this power of the Constitution, Arvind Kejriwal will come out of jail as well," he added.
