Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) MLA Atishi hit out at Delhi's newly appointed Lt Governor (L-G) Vinay Kumar Saxena for conducting a meeting with the city's water board, alleging that he was attempting to infringe on the state government's ambit of governance.
"The new L-G called a meeting with Delhi Jal Board officials on Monday and issued certain directions and orders to them. Since he has been appointed recently and may not know Delhi and its governance structure well, I want to inform him that under the Constitutional position of Delhi, the L-G has been given three areas – land, law and order, and police. This has been made clear in the Supreme Court's Constitutional Bench judgment as well," the AAP leader said.
