The SC on Thursday said that the LG can’t ‘scuttle an executive decision by sitting over a file’ as it heard pleas against the LG being the head of the national capital. The Delhi government had challenged a high court verdict which said that the LG had primacy over the elected government. “He (L-G) must exercise his power in reasonable time with reasons,” the court said.
However, the SC added that the Delhi government needs LG’s nod to govern the national capital. CJI Dipak Misra remarked: “Land, police and public order isn't under you.”
