New Delhi, 11/2: Government nominees’, including AAP leader Jasmine Shah, appointed to the boards of power discoms in Delhi by the Arvind Kejriwal-led dispensation have been replaced with senior officials, sources at the Lieutenant Governor’s office said on Saturday.
Besides Shah, a spokesperson of the AAP, those removed from the boards include Naveen Gupta, son of AAP MP N D Gupta, and other private persons “illegally” appointed as ‘government nominees’, they claimed.
The ruling Aam Aadmi Party termed the L-G’s orders removing Shah and Gupta from the boards of discoms “illegal and unconstitutional”. The LG does not have the power to issue such orders, it claimed.
