Kejri slams Modi Government over CS Appointment

Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal on Sunday slammed Narendra Modi over a row related to the appointment of a top Delhi official, claiming her appointment was just meant to trip his rule in Delhi.

Addressing thousands of auto-rickshaw drivers here, he touched upon the controversy involving Chief Secretary in- charge Shakuntala Gamlin but did not take her name.

Gamlin’s appointment by Lt. Governor Najeeb Jung has led to scathing attack from Arvind Kejriwal. Najeeb has refused back off, and the Central government has blamed kejriwal for character assassination of the official.

Kejriwal also added “We opposed Gamlin’s appointment but the Narendra Modi- led BJP government, made her the acting chief secretary of Delhi conspiring to fail our government”.
