War between Arvind Kejriwal and Najeeb Jung

War between Arvind Kejriwal and Najeeb Jung By  Deepak Parvatiyar May 21, 2015 Rate this post The ongoing public spat between Lieutenant Governor Najeeb Jung and Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal over the control of Delhi administration has exposed the grey areas in governance that require immediate redressal to ensure against any such crisis in the city state of Delhi. The immediate provocation was the appointment of Shakuntala Gamlin as acting Chief Secretary of Delhi by the Lieutenant Governor in spite of Kejriwal’s strong opposition on 15th May this year.

The Legacy of a Callous Force By Deepak Parvatiyar (in Bombay) (This column was published in Free Press Journal, Bombay on 8th March, 1993) If one ignores its dubious role during the recent riots, the Bombay police did enjoy a reputation which could make the famous Scotland Yard envy it. But the recent riots and the emergence of a corrupt and partisan police force made one wonder about such an hyped-up image of the city police. And as the chroniclers recorded the latest events for posterity as a blotch on the face of the city police, one was tempted to flip the pages of history to find out whether the city police ever bore a semblance to the other three Ps -- profiteering, puissance and pomposity -- which have unceremoniously remained a hallmark of Indian police.
