AAP attacks Jung, says Amit Shah taking decisions for him

Amid reports that he was planning to write to the President over government formation, AAP on Sunday  stepped up its attack on Lieutenant Governor Najeeb Jung, alleging that he was acting at the behest of BJP.

‘It’s not the LG, but it’s (BJP  president) Amit Shah who is taking decisions. It is the Centre which is ruling Delhi,’ senior party leader and AAP MLA Manish Sisodia said. He also slammed Jung for his view that if elections were conducted, work and other developmental activities would come to a halt for two months.

‘I don’t subscribe to LG’s logic because on one hand you are saying that people will suffer. It is better that work halts for two months during elections than for eight months when people are without any government. Today’s government is an executive government. Executives work in a closed room. 

They don’t have an interaction with public,’ he said. Sisodia said that the current administration under LG was not people oriented as it has its own limitations.

‘When we were in power, thousands of people would visit us, but LG and his staff are not in a position to interact with these people. Elected government is solution oriented while executive government is just in an execution mode.So it is better to hold elections than what people are going through since last six months. An elected government would be for a good case. If AAP government comes to power, we will have a corruption-free government,’ said Sisodia who was virtually second in command in the 49-day AAP government headed by Arvind Kejriwal. 

He also attacked the BJP for not taking any decision on dissolution of the Legislative Assembly.
