Amid the Delhi government's stand-off with BSES discoms, Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal today said the two companies will be "thrown out" of Delhi if they fail to improve their services and new players will be brought in to replace them.

At the same time, Kejriwal praised the performance of Tata Power Delhi Distribution Ltd, saying the discom was doing a "good job" in the city and the government was satisfied with its services.

"The TPDDL is doing a good job. But Anil Ambani group discoms have not paid their dues to the NTPC. If they fail to ensure better service, they would be thrown out of Delhi and new companies would be appointed," the chief minister said while addressing a rally at Burari.
