No relief for Delhi Government as Supreme Court refuses to stay Delhi High Court order giving primacy to L-G in administration of NCT; SC issues notice to Centre on Delhi govt's appeal.

There seems to be no end to the troubles and controversies for Aam Admi Party. The latest issue confronting and embarassing AAP comes from Delhi High Court judgement quashing AAP government's decision to appoint 21 MLAs as parliamentary secretaries. The court observed that appointments were made without getting approval from the Lieutenant Governor. It is out in the public that the Aam Admi Party which sailed Delhi assembly election with a thumping majority has lost its way on the promises of reforms and high moral grounds as many of the senior leaders of the party have found themselves facing all sorts of allegation from corruption to molestation and rape. Former Delhi minister Sandeep Kumar has been sent to 14 days judicial custody by Delhi's Tis Hazari Court. The Supreme Court has issued notice to Centre on six appeals of Delhi government challenging the Delhi High Court verdict that held that LG is administrative head of national capital. The Supreme Court has not given any stay on Delhi High Court judgement. Delhi Government said there are 400 files with LG. All of them pertains to decision taken by Delhi Government without approval from LG. The LG has formed a committee to review all those 400 decisions. Delhi Government sought stay on the working of the committee because it may hamper the Govt. Work. But SC refused to intervene in the working of the committee as of now. SC issued notice to Centre and seeks reply. Next hearing would be held on 15th November. | |
