Addressing a press conference, she said the government had recommended the name of Justice (retd) Sangeet Lodha for the post on June 21.
However, it was “sidelined and former Allahabad High Court judge Umesh Kumar was appointed as the chairman by the BJP-led Centre. This has been done to ‘trouble’ the elected government of Delhi. In the coming days, we will approach the Supreme Court against this ‘illegal’ appointment,” she said.
