After becoming mayor, Singh still holds post in Standing Committee: LoP

Narang said this is perhaps the first time in history that a Mayor is refusing to resign from a committee that is meant to report to him.

"In what capacity will Raja Iqbal now sit in meetings of a committee that is answerable to the Mayor himself?" Narang asked.

He demanded that Raja Iqbal respect basic protocol and morality by stepping down from the committee and apologising to the people of Delhi.
