SC to lay down law on LG’s power

 

The Supreme Court has agreed to lay down the law on whether the Lieutenant Governor (LG) of Delhi can unilaterally administer the National Capital without being bound by the “aid and advice” of the elected government.

 

Context:

This decision was announced by the court in the context of prolonged Centre-Arvind Kejriwal turf war over who controls Delhi as an “extraordinary matter”.

 

Details:

The Supreme Court has refused to stay the HC judgment, despite submissions by Delhi government that the verdict “affects all future governments and all future relationships between the Centre and the State”. The HC had upheld the LG’s power not only over the police, land and public order but also in “services”. The judgment had effectively shrunk the Delhi Cabinet’s girth.

 

Background:

The 1996 judgment by the Supreme Court in North Delhi Municipal Corporation versus State of Punjabclearly terms Delhi as a Union Territory in a class by itself. The judgment observed that “the Union Territory of Delhi is in a class by itself but is certainly not a State”. Union territories are in different stages of evolution.

Union Territories are governed by Article 246 (4) of the constitution notwithstanding the differences in their respective set-ups.
