Govt tells L- G to fill vacant posts

A day after the services department issued a statement terming the facts presented in the AAP government’s outcome report “misleading with respect to the services matter,” the Delhi Government alleged that this process that the L- G was inciting the officers. In a statement, the government said that “despite politically loaded statements, the department is silent on its core duties. The Services department via L- G needs to speak on what it is doing to fill vacancies,” it questioned.

“The fact that this press release was issued by the Office of the Hon’ble LG clearly proves that the recent strike by officers working for the Delhi government and the concomitant refusal of officers to attend meetings, is taking place with the blessings of the L- G. Otherwise how else would a press release from the office of the Hon’ble L- G, openly admit that officers are not attending meetings which is an open violation of service

It further alleged that it was a serious matter that the L- G, who according to the Constitution of India is a representative ( delegate) of the President of rules,” it questioned. India, has been provoking and inciting officers to violate service rules and defy the democratically elected government purely on political grounds.

“While the chief minister and the deputy chief minister have repeatedly written to the L- G asking him to ensure that officers attend meetings, there has been no response from him. With this press release it is now obvious, why the L- G has not been trying to resolve the situation or taking action against officers violating service rules,” it alleged.
