Delhi Govt. must quit

Sir, - This has reference to the news report `A war on the judiciary, says CJI' (April 5). Something is basically wrong with the Congress and its leaders. The Delhi Chief Minister's attitude and actions are a standing example (not to mention Mr. Ajit Jogi's). I make a mention of these two because both have been in the IAS and hence are expected to show some respect for rules and regulations. The Supreme Court's observation is a strong indictment of the Congress. If it has an iota of political correctness which it so often demands from others this is the fittest case for the Delhi Government to resign. It is not as though the Supreme Court came out with its order for conversion of transport vehicles in Delhi to the CNG fuel mode a few days or a few months ago, the order was pending for three years.

That a Chief Minister should confront the Supreme Court after having done nothing towards the execution of the order goes to show the heights of arrogance the Congress has scaled, and the depths of irrationality to which it has sunk.
