DJB funds row: SC seeks fin secy's reply
The Morning Standard
|April 02, 2024
THE Supreme Court on Monday issued a notice to the Principal Secretary (Finance) on a plea moved by the city government alleging that the official was not releasing funds to the Delhi Jal Board (DJB) despite being approved by the Assembly.

"My civil servants do not listen to me," Delhi government's counsel told a bench headed by CJI DY Chandrachud, adding that ₹1,927 crore is yet to be released for the DJB.
Senior advocate Abhishek Singhvi and advocate Shadan Farasat, appearing for the Delhi government, said the recent amendments in the services law have created a situation where the city bureaucrats are non-compliant with the orders by the elected government. "We will ask the Principal Secretary (Finance)," said the bench.
