Home ministry scraps AAP govt's suspension of 2 officials

December 31, 2015 10:17

The home ministry has just announced that the suspension of two DANICS-cadre officers by the Aam Aadmi Party government is null and void. On Wednesday evening, the Delhi government suspended two senior officers of its Home Department for refusing to sign on a Cabinet decision file, following which around 200 DANICS-cadre officers have threatened to go on mass leave tomorrow in solidarity with their colleagues. The Kejriwal government's move may lead to another round of confrontation between the Centre and the AAP dispensation as only the Delhi Lt Governor can suspend DANICS-cadre officers with permission from the Union home ministry.
