New Delhi: The union cabinet yesterday decided to impose president’s rule in Delhi following the resignation of chief minister Arvind Kejriwal and his council of ministers on Friday. The assembly will now be kept in suspended animation.
Lieutenant Governor Najeeb Jung had earlier recommended that Delhi be placed under president’s rule by keeping the legislature under suspended animation.
The AAP had recommended to Jung to dissolve the Delhi assembly and hold fresh polls. An official notification is likely to be issued today.
