"Due to the lieutenant governor (LG) repeatedly raising illogical objections on the files, the December batch was cancelled and now it seems that March batch is also on the verge of being cancelled," Kejriwal said at a press conference while referring to the Punjab government's plan to send a batch of 36 school principals for a five-day training to Singapore. The Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) is in power in Punjab as well.
The training trip has emerged as the latest flashpoint between the AAP government and LG.
While the state government has maintained that the LG office has deliberately delayed approval to the file that was first sent in October, the LG has said that he has not rejected the proposal and his aim was not to obstruct.
The Delhi government had prepared a proposal for a five-day training programme for primary in-charges of Delhi government schools and educators at Jyväskylä University in Finland. After the LG office raised queries over the proposal, the government sent the file back for the third time last month.
"The government had sent the files related to teachers training on October 25 and it was returned with three objections on November 10. We addressed his objections and sent the file back, but it was again returned on January 9 with two more objections. We added the clarifications and resubmitted it on January 20. There is no progress so far," Kejriwal said.
