Describing the NCCSA as ‘useless’, Chief Minister Kejriwal on Tuesday said the Centre’s ordinance on control of services in Delhi has placed the chief secretary above the cabinet and the Aam Aadmi Party government will challenge it in the Supreme Court. After attending the first meeting of NCCSA, CM Kejriwal said that this authority is useless and the government will go to the Supreme Court. He claimed that the rights of the elected government have been taken away through the ordinance and the central government wants to control Delhi through officials. He alleged, “An officer has been given charge over every minister. The central government wants to control the Delhi government through officials. In the ordinance, the Chief Secretary of Delhi has been placed above the cabinet.
