Three persons have died due to chikungunya in Delhi.
While one death was reported on Monday, two more fatalities were recorded on Tuesday. The Dengue and Malaria toll stand at nine and two respectively.
Sisodia said officials of the Delhi government were busy following the “LG’s instructions” of going through the files of the past 18 months and sending these to him.
“Officers do not come to meetings called by ministers.
They remain away from their offices throughout the day. If the country has reporters who are not in the ‘Modi school of journalism’, they should decide who the government is–LG or Chief Minister
“If they believe LG has all the powers in Delhi then he should be held responsible in these cases. Where did the LG disappear after putting useless and lazy officers at the helm of the Health department in the city,” the Deputy CM said in a series of tweets.
The Delhi High Court, in its August 4 verdict, had held that the Lt Governor was the administrative head of the national capital, thus rejecting the AAP government’s contention that the Governor was bound to act only on the aid and advice of the CM and his council of ministers.
