AAP attacks Jung, says Amit Shah taking decisions for LG

August 31, 2014 18:10

Amid reports that he was planning to write to the President over government formation, the Aam Aadmi Party today stepped up its attack on Lt Governor Najeeb Jung, alleging that he was acting at the behest of the 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 told PTI.

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."
