Lt Governor Stalls Home Delivery Of Delhi Services, Manish Sisodia Fumes | Read

The Lieutenant Governor has shot down the Delhi government's proposal to "home deliver" basic public services -- from birth certificates to social welfare schemes -- Deputy Chief Minister Manish Sisodia said on Tuesday. Calling it a "huge setback" to the government's efforts to provide good and corruption-free governance, Mr Sisodia questioned whether the Lieutenant Governor should "have the power" to express difference of opinion with the elected government on such "critical matters of public interest and be able to scuttle such measures".
