1. Delhi civil servants Ordinance row | Kejriwal, Mann call on Stalin
Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal and Punjab Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann called on Tamil Nadu Chief Minister M.K. Stalin at his residence in Alwarpet, Chennai, seeking support in Mr. Kejriwal’s fight against the Centre over the Ordinance on postings of civil servants in the national capital.
On May 19, the Union government brought an Ordinance designating the Lieutenant Governor (L-G) as the administrator of Delhi who will have the final say on the postings and transfer of all bureaucrats serving the Delhi government. The move came a week after the Supreme Court had held that the Delhi government had the legislative and executive powers.
