Kejriwal govt vs Centre: Delhi High Court seeks response from Modi governnment

New Delhi: The Delhi High Court on Monday sought response from the Centre over Delhi Government's plea seeking stay on various petitions pertaining to disputes between the two.

The Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) Government had moved the high court seeking a stay on various petitions pertaining to disputes between the Delhi government and the Centre.

This development follows a suit filed by the Delhi government in the Supreme Court, urging it to decide the disputes.

Seeking a stay on five different petitions and connected matters in which the government and the Centre have questioned the executive powers of each other with regard to administration, the Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal-led Delhi Government also filed an application before the high court.

The government also stated that almost every decision taken by it is questioned on the ground that Lieutenant Governor Najeeb Jung alone has the power to take such decisions.
