Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal and Lieutenant Governor VK Saxena resumed their weekly meeting on Friday. This was the first meeting between CM Kejriwal and the Delhi L-G following weeks of tension over raid on Deputy CM Manish Sisodia in excise policy case.
The weekly meeting comes at a time when the AAP and the Lieutenant Governor are at odds with each other. The AAP had levelled allegations of corruption against Delhi Lieutenant Governor Vinai Kumar Saxena and demanded his removal from the top post. The AAP legislators are demanding a CBI probe against L-G VK Saxena.
Meanwhile, Vinai Kumar Saxena has sent a legal notice to AAP leaders directing them to 'cease and desist' from circulating defamatory statements against the Delhi LG. Under the letterhead of L-G Saxena's lawyer, the notice mentioned certain phrases and social media hashtags which should not be used.
The legal notice demanded the prohibition of the usage of hashtags which appeared derogatory to the constitutional post. The legal notice alleged that the AAP circulated pieces of false information not only to taint the image of L-G Saxena but harm his dignity too.
