Replying to Kejriwal, Delhi BJP spokesperson Praveen Shankar Kapoor said that the statements of the chief minister and other AAP leaders in the context of the municipal elections reflected their political frustration and lust for power in civic bodies.
In a fillip to the judiciary, a scheme for the development of infrastructure facilities has been extended for five years. This will lead to building better courts and reduce pendency.
The centrally-sponsored scheme approved by the Union Cabinet will help in construction of 3,800 court halls and 4,000 residential units for judicial officers of district and subordinate courts, 1,450 lawyer halls, 1,450 toilet complexes, and 3,800 digital computer rooms.
A three-judge bench comprising Chief Justice S.A. Bobde, Justice A.S. Bopanna, Justice V. Ramasubramanian was hearing the matter through video conferencing.
