Across the political range, there have been strong reactions to the Supreme Court's decision to grant bail to the former Deputy Chief Minister. In its decision, the court specifically questioned why Sisodia had been in custody without being given a chance to defend himself, and it criticized the trial court and the Delhi High Court for turning down his previous bail requests. A person could not be discarded to spoil in jail without being given a fair trial, the justices underscored.
The AAP, the party of Sisodia, has eagerly hailed the Supreme Court's decision as a "victory of truth." Following the decision, party members and political supporters have expressed relief and support. Using social networking platform X (previously Twitter), AAP Rajya Sabha MP Raghav Chadha expressed his happiness, writing, "The entire country is happy today as Manish Sisodia, hero of Delhi's education revolution, got bail."

Sisodia has played a key role in the AAP government, especially when it comes to the reform of Delhi's educational system. Under his direction, the government carried out several ground-breaking programs, such as the reconstruction of public schools, the introduction of cutting-edge curricula like the Happiness Curriculum, and making considerable advancements in teacher preparation and infrastructure. These initiatives have received high praise and established new standards for India's public education system.
Many have questioned the independence of the legal system in response to Sisodia's arrest and extended detention without charge or trial. His release is celebrated by the AAP and its supporters as a victory of justice and truth, in addition to being considered a personal success.
