Ever since the Kejriwal Government came to power with a massive mandate in Delhi, they were in logger heads with LG and the central Government. The tussle has cost people of Delhi very dearly as the day to Govt. functions are in doldrums. It seems the AAP government wants to function as a state with full State hood where as the given provisions of rules does not allow them to do so. The Officers and other government functionaries are in a mess as they are confused as whom to obey or whose orders are to be followed. The latest tussle being two officer's refusal to sign the Cabinet note which didn't have the mandatory aproval from LG or Central Govt and their resultant suspension:-
The news clipping regarding the incidence is as below.
The Delhi government alleged a conspiracy by the lieutenant governor and the BJP-led Central government behind the decision of its senior bureaucrats to skip work on Thursday protesting the suspension of two of their colleagues.
This comes after the Centre struck down the Aam Aadmi Party government’s decision to suspend two DANICS-cadre officers for not signing on a file pertaining to a cabinet decision.
“It’s clear, there is a conspiracy, if officers had grievances they should have gone to the chief minister and not the LG....LG has power to stay some orders, but a blanket order saying no order of Delhi government is to be seen through, can’t be followed,” Delhi home minister Satyendra Jain said.
Yashpal Garg, special secretary (prosecution), and Subhash Chandra, special secretary (prisons) were suspended on Wednesday after they refused to sign a file on the cabinet decision to increase the salary of public prosecutors.
Following this, officers from the DANICS cadre (acronym for NCT of Delhi, Andaman & Nicobar Islands, Lakshadweep, Daman & Diu and Dadra & Nagar Haveli Civil Service) have gone on leave on Thursday in solidarity with the suspended officers.
Jain taunted the protesting officers saying they should go for a month-long leave instead of skipping work for a day.
“We can show how their absence will not affect governance,” he told reporters at his residence in the morning.
Officers of DANICS are recruited directly through the Civil Services Examination and are responsible for the administrative functions of the national capital region and union territories.
The Congress hit out at both the BJP and AAP over the controversy, saying their “ego fight” was affecting the people of Delhi.
“Earlier, there was confusion whether the files will go to the LG or not. Now, he is saying he won’t sign on the cabinet decisions. So, somewhere there is a conspiracy,” Congress leader JP Aggarwal told ANI.
