Delhi Lt Governor Najeeb Jung 'a good man with bad political bosses': Arvind Kejriwal

New Delhi: Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal on Saturday termed Delhi Lt Governor Najeeb Jung as a 'good man', with whom he was locked in a bitter tussle over several issues.

Kejriwal's comments on Jung comes at a time when the Aam Aadmi Party has long accused the Delhi LT Governor of acting on the behest of BJP-led central government.

Earlier the AAP convenor had described Jung as a 'BJP agent'.

A day after BJP BJP MP Udit Raj on Friday demanded the "removal" of Jung, Kejriwal today took to his Twitter account to express his views. He wrote:

Congress n BJP both demanding Sh Najeeb Jung's removal? Strange. Is he at fault? No. He is doin what PMO is asking him to do(1/2)

Removing him will not help. His successor wud also do same if PMO kept interfering. Real solution is PMO shud stop interfering in Delhi(2/2) — Arvind Kejriwal (@ArvindKejriwal) September 26, 2015

Sh Najeeb Jung is a good man with bad political bosses — Arvind Kejriwal (@ArvindKejriwal) September 26, 2015

Raj termed Jung as a "super king" for not heeding the views of elected representative, a day after three of his supporters were arrested for allegedly assaulting an IAS officer.

"The Lt Governor is behaving as a super king. He must be removed. I will write to the Centre against him," Udit Raj said adding that he had to wait for 3-4 days to talk to Jung to discuss "serious" public matters.

Reacting to the BJP MP's demand to remove Jung, Deputy Chief Minister Manish Sisodia said that instead of making statements to the media, he should directly talk to Prime Minister Narendra Modi in this regard.

"Udit Raj's party has its own government .If he wants to remove the LG, he can. Why is he speaking to the media? He should directly talk to the Prime Minister," Sisodia said here.
