Highly objectionable and I was hurt that Arvind Kejriwal called Atishi temporary: Lt Governor

By IBNS
Dec 30, 2024..

New Delhi/IBNS: Delhi Lieutenant Governor VK Saxena has expressed concern over Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) supremo Arvind Kejriwal calling Atishi a "temporary chief minister" and said he was "hurt" by the same.


In a letter to CM Atishi, Saxena said: "A few days ago, when your predecessor, Arvind Kejriwal, publicly declared you as a temporary or stopgap chief minister in the media, I found this highly objectionable, and I was hurt by it."

The LG Governor said it was insulting to both the President of India who appointed Atishi and himself as he administered the oath to her.

"This was not only an insult to you but also to the president of India, and to me, in my capacity as her representative," Saxena said.

"There is no such post in the Constitution and it is a reprehensible neglect to the concept of democracy in the Constitution of Babasaheb Ambedkar."

"Everyone knows in what circumstances you were appointed," he wrote.

The Lieutenant Governor, who said he was writing in a personal capacity, has praised Atishi, commending her efficiency and initiative.

"This is the first time in my two-and-a-half-year tenure that I am seeing a Chief Minister discharge the duties of a Chief Minister. Your predecessor did not handle a single government department and never signed a file. In contrast, you are handling many departments and trying to tackle many governance issues," he wrote. 

The Chief Minister is yet to respond to the issue.

Delhi will go to Assembly polls in February next year.
