Chief Secy assault row: AAP MLA says officials who obstruct people's work should be beaten up

In the wake of the Aam Aadmi Party vs Chief Secretary row, AAP MLA Naresh Balyan today said that officials who sit on files and obstruct people's work should be beaten up.

"Jo Chief Secretary ke saath hua, jo inhone jhootha aarop lagaya, main to keh raha hoon, aise adhikariyon ko maarna chahiye, unhe thokna chahiye (What happened with the Chief Secretary, the false allegations that he has made (sic), I say such officials should be beaten up)," AAP's Uttam Nagar MLA Naresh Balyan was quoted by ANI.

Addressing a rally in Uttam Nagar, AAP MLA Naresh Balyan accused the bureaucracy of not clearing files. He alleged that files that normally takes three days to clear are not getting clearance even after six months.

The AAP MLA said files are not moving as the Delhi Chief Minister has stopped the "setting" and the "commission" system.

"Jo aam aadmi ke kaam ko rok ke baithe hain, aise adhikariyon ke saath yahi salook hona chahiye (Officials who are trying to cause impediment in the work of aam aadmi deserve such treatment)," AAP MLA Naresh Balyan said, referring to the alleged assault on Delhi Chief Secretary Anshu Prakash.
