Shock to Arvind Kejriwal, DDCD Vice President Jasmine Shah sacked, office sealed on LG's instructions

The Aam Aadmi Party government, which is preparing for the Delhi Municipal Corporation elections 2022, has suffered a major setback on Friday. Lieutenant Governor Vinay Kumar Saxena (Delhi LG VK Saxena) has ordered the removal of Jasmine Shah, Vice Chairperson of the Dialogue and Development Commission of Delhi (DDCD) from her post.

This order of LG is being considered as a big blow for Arvind Kejriwal, because he had praised Jasmine Shah a few months ago and had indicated not to remove her. LG is the administrator of Delhi, so Arvind Kejriwal has to follow his order.

Lieutenant Governor VK Saxena has accused Jasmine Shah of misusing the position for political purpose. Let us tell you that some time ago, Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal had claimed that the LG did not have the right to act in the DDCD case. He argued that Jasmine Shah has been appointed by the cabinet, so only the cabinet can take action. According to the information received, Delhi Lieutenant Governor Vinay Kumar Saxena has asked CM Arvind Kejriwal to remove Jasmine Shah from the post of Vice-Chairman of DDCD for misusing her office for political purposes. In the letter issued by the Lieutenant Governor's office, the office of DDCD was also ordered to be sealed, which has been implemented and the office has been sealed. Actually, LG is the administrator of Delhi, so Arvind Kejriwal will have to follow his order.
