On Thursday, Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal will meet with his Tamil Nadu counterpart MK Stalin in an attempt to gain support for the Centre’s Ordinance on control over administrative services in the national capital.
The Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) chief tweeted on Wednesday, “Will be meeting Tamil Nadu CM MK Stalin in Chennai tomorrow (1st June) to seek DMK’s support against Centre’s unconstitutional-undemocratic ‘Anti-Delhi’ Ordinance.” Notably, on May 23, Kejriwal embarked on a nationwide tour to rally opposition parties against the Ordinance.
On June 2, Kejriwal will meet with Jharkhand Chief Minister Hemant Soren.
“On June 2, I will meet the Chief Minister of Jharkhand Hemant Soren ji in Ranchi. Will seek their support against the ordinance passed by the Modi government against the people of Delhi,” he said in a subsequent tweet.
The AAP national convenor has so far met West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee, former Maharashtra CM Uddhav Thackeray, Nationalist Congress Party (NCP) supremo Sharad Pawar, Bihar CM Nitish Kumar and his deputy Tejashwi Yadav.
The Union government on May 19 brought an ordinance to notify rules for the Government of National Capital Territory of Delhi (GNCTD) regarding the ‘transfer posting, vigilance and other incidental matters’.
The ordinance amends the Government of National Capital Territory of Delhi Act, 1991, and thus avoids the Supreme Court’s decision in the Centre vs Delhi case.
