Leader of opposition in the assembly Vijendra Gupta and other MLAs have demanded calling a special session of the assembly. He said that BJP MLAs have given a memorandum to the President and the issues raised in it should be discussed in the Assembly. Neither the cabinet meeting nor the assembly session has been called for the last five months. There is an urgent need to call a special session. In the press conference, Vijendra Gupta said, “Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal has been in jail for five months. Instead of resigning, he has announced to run the government from jail itself. The government should tell how many decisions have been taken by the Chief Minister from jail during this period.” Information about the cabinet meeting and the decisions taken in it should be given.
The financial condition of the Municipal Corporation is worsening.
Vijendra said, “The Chief Minister is the Chairman of the National Capital Civil Services Authority. The government should also explain the reason for not holding its meeting. The government is violating the Constitution by not constituting the Sixth Delhi Finance Commission. The financial condition of the Commission is very bad. ” The condition of the Municipal Corporation is bad.” ”The Commission should tell the government the reason for not constituting a permanent committee in the Municipal Corporation and should also tell about the 11 reports of CAG in the last seven years.”
He said, “On March 15, 2024, the Chief Secretary had submitted a report to the Water Minister on financial irregularities in the Jal Board, which he did not present in the House. The Jal Board has refused to return the loan of Rs 73 thousand crore from the Delhi Government. Ask questions.” “The government should clarify its stand. Questions should also be asked about non-implementation of the central government’s Ayushman Bharat scheme in Delhi and non-funding of 12 colleges funded by the state government.”
