(L-r): Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal and Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi are in a faceoff regarding the law and order situation in Delhi.<\/p>\n
In a direct attack on the Center, the AAP-led Delhi government has put up posters across the national capital requesting Prime Minister Narendra Modi to allow the city dispensation to work.<\/p>\n
Referring to “interference” of central government in the functioning of Anti-corruption Branch and Delhi Commission for Women, the Aam Aadmi Party government issued a new poster which read, “Prime Minister Sir, Please, let Delhi government work. Delhi government is working fine.”<\/p>\n
The poster was put up across Delhi soon after Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal shot a letter to Lt. Governor, alleging that Najeeb Jung has made the DCW “completely dysfunctional” at the behest of the prime minister.<\/p>\n
Accusing the Center of “attempting to weaken” AAP government’s fight against corruption, Deputy Chief Minister Manish Sisodia said, “Delhi government’s anti-corruption branch was working with full vigor but as it started getting success, a new chief was appointed illegally.”<\/p>\n
“Rumors were spread that the ACB was going to lodge an FIR against a Union Minister,” he said.<\/p>\n
Earlier, Delhi government had posted audio clips on social media slamming the Delhi Police and Modi over the gruesome murder of a 19-year-old girl.<\/p>\n
Radio and newspaper advertisements have also been issued by the Delhi government to convey the message.<\/p>\n
In the advertisement, Kejriwal appeals to Modi to take steps to improve Delhi’s “deteriorating” law and order situation or hand over police to the city government.<\/p>\n
Earlier, Delhi Police chief B.S. Bassi objected to the advertisement where Kejriwal has questioned the functioning of the force, calling it “misleading.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
