"It is high time that those entrusted with the responsibility of ensuring the safety of lives of residents of Delhi should not be seen as failing time and again in their mandatory duty," he wrote.
Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal today wrote to the Lieutenant Governor, calling for urgent attention to "an alarming spurt" in serious crimes in the national capital. Referring to official crime figures, he also took a swipe at the Ministry of Home Affairs (MHA) and the Lieutenant Governor for failing to take preventive steps on crimes against women.
Pointing to four murders in Delhi in the last 24 hours, the Aam Aadmi Party chief appealed to the LG, Vinai Kumar Saxena, to initiate "urgent effective steps to restore the confidence in residents about the security and safety of their lives, since such serious crimes have shaken Delhi".
Arvind Kejriwal offered "all possible cooperation" to ensure the rule of law in Delhi.
"It is high time that those entrusted with the responsibility of ensuring the safety of lives of residents of Delhi should not be seen as failing time and again in their mandatory duty," he wrote.
