New Delhi: The Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal on Tuesday allotted additional charge of the Services and Vigilance departments to Public Works Department Minister Atishi Marlena.
The file has been sent to Lieutenant Governor VK Saxena in this regard by CM Arvind Kejriwal, an official said. Both the departments were earlier handled by Saurabh Bharadwaj.
This came a day after Rajya Sabha passed Delhi services Bill. As the Rajya Sabha on Monday evening passed the Delhi Services Bill after an 8-hour-long debate, giving Centre control over city bureaucrats, Aam Admi Party leader Atishi said the ruling party and the people in the national capital will continue its fight against the BJP.
Lashing out at Prime Minister Narendra Modi, the Atishi said, "There are many in the country who talk about the absence of democracy in Pakistan, wondering how Bills are passed by their Parliament without any debate or consent." (with Agency inputs)
