How Twitter Reacted to SC Verdict on AAP vs L-G

SC verdict says that L-G cannot interfere with policy decisions taken by the AAP government in Delhi.

On 4 July, the Supreme Court finally brought an end to the much debated power tussle between Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal and Lieutenant Governor (L-G) Anil Baijal.

The verdict clearly stated that L-G has no independent decision-making powers and cannot act as an ‘obstructionist’ to policy decisions taken by the AAP government.

Although the status of ‘full statehood’ was not granted by the bench, the verdict mentioned that the elected government should be allowed to make laws on subjects mentioned on state list and concurrent list, other than the three issues of land, police and law and order.

The subject of transfer & posting of officers, which was snatched away by Centre, is restored to AAP govt. Anti Corruption Bureau is now also with @ArvindKejriwal. AAP has got all powers that Delhi govt enjoyed before 2015. Democracy restored: @raghav_chadha #DelhiPowerTussle

Delhi cannot be given the status of a state in view of an earlier 9 judge judgment. LG is administrator, bound to work on aid & advice of cabinet. - SC#DelhiPowerTussle

Summary of SC judgement:

👉Nautanki (anarchism) of Kejriwal and co won't be tolerated

👉Stop giving excuses and start working for the people of Delhi

👉Police and public order will remain under the control of central govt bcoz urban nuxals can't be trusted#DelhiPowerTussle

Contrary to what AAP Leader claims, Supreme Court's decision is a Big setback for Kejriwal. Now, He can't blame LG for not doing any work of development at all and lie to public.#DelhiPowerTussle
