Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal s governance from Tihar jail draws criticism from Delhi High Court and Prime Minister Narendra Modi, who questions his moral integrity. Kejriwal faces money laundering allegations amid accusations of political maneuvering in the Delhi Excise Policy scam case. The court accuses him of prioritizing political interest over national interest.
The high court said that a chief minister s post in any state, leave alone a buzzing capital city like Delhi, is not a ceremonial post and it is a post where the office holder has to be virtually available 24 7 to deal with any crisis or natural disaster like flooding, fire and disease.
A division bench of Acting Chief Justice Manmohan and Justice Manmeet Pritam Singh Arora made the observation while hearing a PIL highlighting that over 2 lakh MCD school students are deprived of "statutory benefits."
Delhi High Court lashes out at AAP govt for neglecting 2 lakh students in MCD schools, prioritizing personal over national interests. Criticizes lack of funding, textbooks, notepads, uniforms, tin-roofed classrooms, and issues with various authorities.
