Kejriwal alleged that LG bragged that BJP won 104 seats in the December Municipal Corporation of Delhi (MCD) because he is a part of BJP
New Delhi: Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal slammed Lieutenant Governor VK Saxena for allegedly stalling a Delhi teachers’ training visit to Finland. He questioned that who is LG to decide how our children should be educated?
“Who is this LG? He is sitting on our heads. Who is he to decide how our children should be educated? These people have let our children stay uneducated. The LG doesn’t have powers to stop us. Nothing is permanent in life. We may be in power at the Centre tomorrow, with our LG. Our government will not harass people,” Kejriwal said.
Further AAP Chief said, “My teachers have not checked my homework the way this LG is checking my ‘homework’, complaining about spellings, handwriting…He is not my headmaster? I am an elected chief minister.”
Kejriwal and AAP accused LG of discarding Delhi Government’s plan of sending Primary school teachers for a training visit to Finland. Delhi LG had strongly denied this plan, insisting that all he wanted was a cost-benefit analysis.
“I said to him (the Lt Governor), who are you to ask for a cost-benefit analysis? The public elected me. He said the ‘President chose me’. I said, like the British chose viceroys? Viceroys used to say, ‘You bloody Indians, you don’t know how to govern’. Now you (Lt Governor) are saying ‘You bloody Delhiwalas, you don’t know how to govern’,” said Kejriwal.

Kejriwal alleged that LG bragged that BJP won 104 seats in the December Municipal Corporation of Delhi (MCD) because he is a part of BJP. “He told me during a meeting that BJP won 104 seats in MCD polls because of him and that they wouldn’t have won even 20 seats without him,” said the AAP chief.
Kejriwal further claimed that BJP will win all seven Lok Sabha seats in Delhi in the upcoming general elections.
