BJP MLA and Leader of Opposition in Delhi Assembly Vijender Gupta has expressed "unhappiness and resentment" over Lieutenant Governor Anil Baijal's "stamp of approval" to the AAP-led Delhi government's "one-sided" step in appointments to the three civic bodies and the State Naming Authority.
Gupta said he was perturbed by two actions of the Delhi government – nominations of members to the State Naming Authority and of 30 Aldermen to the three municipal corporations – getting the Lt Governor's approval.
"The steps taken are one-sided and sets the Opposition aside. Of the seven MLA members in the naming authority, no one is from the Opposition. This is not a single instance. The LG is putting a stamp on it," he said.
Earlier this week, the State Naming Authority was constituted by the Delhi government after approval from the LG. The body has been formed to take decision on naming of roads, streets, residential areas.AGENCIES
