Central government has reportedly returned 14 bills passed by the Delhi Assembly as due procedure was not followed.
The BJP-led NDA Government at the Centre on Friday returned 14 Bills passed by the Delhi Assembly to the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) led-Delhi Government. The returned bills include the Delhi Jan Lokpal Bill 2015, which the AAP had described as the 'strongest' anti-corruption legislation in the country.
While returning the bills, the Centre has reportedly said that the procedure was not followed and that the assent of Lt. Governor Najeeb Jung was not taken.
Meanwhile, infuriated by this decision, the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) said that it was unfortunate for the nation that Prime Minister Narendra Modi was not letting a fully elected government to function in Delhi.
"He wants to run the Delhi Government on his own directions. The bills that have returned by the Centre include the Lokpal Bill and the Citizen Charter Bill. Modi ji used to say that 'na khaunga na khane dunga'. But now he is saying that we will not let the bills pass," AAP leader Sanjay Singh told ANI.
"This decision clearly shows that the people of Delhi are being punished for choosing Arvind Kejriwal as their Chief Minister," he added.
The AAP supremo, in a series of tweets, alleged that the Centre is creating impediments in every aspect of the state government's functioning.
"It is my humble request to Prime Minister Modi that he should have a big heart. Have a big heart. Forget the defeat of the Delhi assembly elections and don't take revenge from the people of the city. Should the Centre have the right to block every law of the Delhi government? Is the Central government the headmaster of the Delhi government?" he added.
