Centre targeted us because we curbed corruption, says Delhi CM Arvind Kejriwal

Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal has been told clearly by the central government that it is not essential for him to be consulted on matters like the appointment of key bureaucrats. Instead, the Centre said, Lieutenant Governor Najeeb Jung can use "his discretion" on whether to get the Chief Minister's input. Mr Kejriwal retaliated by accusing the Centre of "betraying the people of Delhi" and attempting to protect corrupt officers; reiterating his allegation of the BJP using the Lieutenant Governor to govern Delhi by proxy, he said, "The Prime Minister's Office acts like the Queen of England used to, with the Lieutenant Governor as Viceroy." The BJP, he said, is trying to "run Delhi with three MLAs"; his Aam Aadmi Party has the remaining 67 seats in the state legislature.
