‘Conspiracy’ to stop power subsidy scheme: Delhi CM

On Saturday, Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal vowed that his administration would not allow the “plot” to eliminate the electricity subsidy programme in the nation’s capital to succeed and that he would fight tooth and nail for the rights of Delhi’s citizens. A day after Power Minister Atishi claimed in the Delhi Assembly that Lt Governor VK Saxena had ordered bureaucrats to try to halt the electricity subsidy programme, Kejriwal warned him not to later claim that “dignities” had been violated. Saxena stated earlier this week that the “dignity of speech” has recently been violated, an apparent allusion to his relationship with the AAP dispensation, which has been aggressively criticising him over a number of topics.
