It's a searing 45C in Delhi as Kejriwal begins Jan Sabha

May 25, 2015 18:06

Meanwhile, it's a searing 45C in Delhi -- the hottest day of the season. But Delhi CM Arvind Kejriwal has reason to feel pleased. Just ahead of the Jan Sabha, Kejriwal has received solid vindication in court.

Delhi's anti-corruption branch must take its orders from Kejriwal's government and not the Centre, the Delhi High Court said today. The judge also said that Lieutenant Governor of Delhi Najeeb Jung is "bound to act upon the aid and advice of the Council of Ministers."

"Today's HC judgement a huge embarassment for central govt, (sic)" tweeted Kejriwal.
