  • Delhi chief minister Atishi claimed that the religious committee headed by LG decided to demolish multiple religious structures in the capital.

The article discusses a dispute between Delhi's Lieutenant Governor (LG) V.K. Saxena and Delhi's Education Minister Atishi regarding the demolition of religious structures in Delhi. Atishi had written to the LG, urging him to reconsider the demolition of these structures, citing potential communal tensions. In response, the LG's office accused Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal of engaging in "cheap politics" by politicizing the issue. The LG's office emphasized that the decision to remove these structures was made by the Delhi Religious Committee, which includes members from various political parties, and not unilaterally by the LG. They further criticized the AAP government for not addressing the issue earlier and for now using it to create a political narrative. The LG's office also highlighted that the Supreme Court had previously directed the removal of such unauthorized constructions, and accused the AAP of hypocrisy in their sudden concern for these structures.
