New Delhi : The Centre on Monday advised Delhi Lieutenant Governor Najeeb Jung and Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal to work as per the Constitution while discharging their respective responsibilities.

“Delhi is a Union Territory. We all have to understand that Delhi is not a full-fledged state. The Lieutenant Governor has certain constitutional duties and responsibilities.              “The Chief Minister also has certain duties and responsibilities. We all have to work under a set-up which is there in the Constitution,” Minister of State for Home Kiren Rijiju told reporters.

The Union Minister’s comments came after reports that Jung and Kejriwal were on a tussle after the LG directed Delhi Ministers and top officials to route all important files through him as per

Jung’s order came after reports that Kejriwal has asked his Ministers and senior officials of Delhi government not to bother the LG’s office by sending files to him. Rijiju, however, refused to elaborate further.
