New Delhi, May 26 (). Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal on Friday said he has sought an appointment with Congress President Mallikarjun Kharge and Rahul Gandhi to seek support in Parliament against the recently passed ordinance on transfers of bureaucrats by the Centre.
Taking to Twitter, the Chief Minister said, sought an appointment with Congress President Kharge ji and Rahul Gandhi ji this morning to seek Congress support in Parliament against the undemocratic and unconstitutional ordinance passed by the BJP government and to discuss the attack on the federal structure.
On Thursday, Kejriwal and Punjab CM Bhagwant Mann met Nationalist Congress Party President Sharad Pawar. The NCP promised full support to the Aam Aadmi Party in its fight against the central government.
Pawar said, democracy is being attacked by the BJP. We all should unite and protect it. Elected governments are being denied their rights and obstacles are being created for them. We will fully support your fight in Parliament.
Earlier Kejriwal and Mann had met former Maharashtra Chief Minister Uddhav Thackeray and also secured the support of Shiv Sena-UBT.
Soon after the Supreme Court’s decision empowering the state government to appoint officers in Delhi, the Center issued an ordinance reversing the decision and giving all powers to the Lieutenant Governor.
Kejriwal is meeting the heads of all the top opposition parties in the country to stop the central ordinance in the Rajya Sabha.
