LG asks Delhi CM to convene special session to table CAG reports

A few MLAs were compelled to approach Delhi High Court for enforcement of their own Constitutional rights, so flagrantly 'violated' by the elected government, V K Saxena said

Lieutenant Governor V K Saxena has written to Chief Minister Atishi to convene a special session of the Delhi Assembly to table CAG reports.

In his letter addressed to the CM, Saxena on Tuesday said, "I am writing to draw your urgent attention to an issue of significant public importance. I am sure that as elected Chief Minister of Delhi, you are conscious of the significance of statutory audit on the functioning of various departments undertaken by the CAG."

He noted that it is the Constitutional obligation of an elected government to lay CAG such reports before the Assembly, as part of the framework of accountability of government before the legislature envisioned by the framers of the Constitution.
