Correspondence between Lieutenant Governor VK Saxena and Prime Minister Arvind Kejriwal on Friday heightened tensions. In a letter to the Prime Minister, the Lieutenant Governor called the political situation chaotic after the Supreme Court ruling.
According to the lieutenant governor, since the decision of the Constitutional Bench, the government and ministers of Delhi are rushing decisions, ignoring the rules and procedures and intimidating and threatening the officials. In his letter, the Lieutenant Governor also specifically mentioned the name of Saurabh Bhardwaj, Minister of Services.
At the same time, the prime minister said in the letter of reply that the language of the lieutenant governor’s letter is war. If Saurabh has made a mistake, the Lieutenant Governor can be called and scolded, but he must allow the elected government to do the work of the people of Delhi.
In the letter, the Lieutenant Governor writes that since the decision of the Supreme Court, the Delhi government and ministers, especially Saurabh Bhardwaj of the Services Department, have engaged in unconstitutional, shameless, intimidating and disrespectful acts. Referring to the conversation he had with the Prime Minister shortly after the decision was announced, the Lieutenant Governor has written that after considering the decision, he will get officials to follow it. He had asked for two to three days to do this.
In addition, it was also said that the prime minister can speak to him by telephone. The Lieutenant Governor further wrote that with the increase in powers, the responsibilities also increase. In such a situation, ethical and constitutional procedures must be followed by the government. Despite this, in a dramatic and complicated manner, the Prime Minister and the ministers began to hurriedly raise a fuss by order of the court. Here, too, the rules have been overlooked. Constant media pressure is also created so that the recommendations of the minister (services) are implemented without thinking. For this, the officers were threatened so that they would support the arbitrariness of the ministers.
