Govt to appeal to SC against CNG hike
New Delhi, January 27 Autorickshaw drivers, who are an important part of the AAP's support base, had protested against the increase, warning that they would hike their fares. Two days before the AAP-led Delhi government was formed, the Union government had increased the price of the CNG by nearly 10 per cent, Rs 4.50 per kg. Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal had at that time said that this move was part of a conspiracy against his new government. Further, what could be a reason for another spat between the Delhi government and the Delhi police, the state government today decided to approach the Centre to raise two important issues related to the Delhi police. The government will take up the matter of 'accidental' shooting of a 19-year-old motorcyclist at the hands of an inspector and a gangrape issue that was reported yesterday morning. A magisterial inquiry initiated in the shooting case has reportedly indicted the police. "The magistrate report in the shooting of the motorcyclist makes it clear that the boy was not part of the motorcyclists' gang and he was riding pillion," said a top officer of the Chief Minister's office. "Apart from that, one more rape incident was reported today. We would be approaching the Centre over these issues. We want to know what the police have done in both the incidents," the officer added. |

The party is getting an overwhelming support, especially from the women, youth and the poor. The BJP will launch a series of programmes which will be deliberated upon over the next few days in view of the Lok Sabha polls," he added. "It is clear after the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) has failed to deliver in the last one month in Delhi that the people would be looking up to the BJP to provide good governance. We would reach out to every household to reinforce their confidence in us," said Goel. Slamming the AAP government for doing nothing during its one-month rule, Goel said, "Even the Delhi High Court has today expressed its unhappiness over the way the AAP has handled the issue of providing shelters to the homeless in Delhi. The Chief Minister and his colleagues are busy in holding dharnas." |
