Chief Minister of Delhi Arvind Kejriwal on Monday took a jibe at Lieutenant Governor Najeeb Jung for hindering policies of his government. In a letter to the administrator, Kejriwal said Prime Minister Narendra Modi would not make Jung the vice president of India, regardless of how many orders he takes from him, IANS reported.

“No matter how many illegal, anti-people and unconstitutional acts you commit on the orders of Modiji, he is not going to make you vice president of India”, he wrote. The chief minister further said that while some “followed the religion of serving humanity”, others believed in destroying and blocking others’ good work. “You and Modi, follow your faith.”

In addition to the personal attack in the letter, he urged Jung to launch an investigation into the establishment of a 100-seat medical college, which he inaugurated on Monday. He claimed Health Minister Satyendar Jain had set up the college “in a record time” and said the Central Bureau of Investigation and Anti-Corruption Bureau should look into it.

The Aam Aadmi Party leader’s letter to the lieutenant governor follows President Pranab Mukherjee’s rejection of Delhi’s dual office of profit Bill. The Kejriwal government had passed the Bill, seeking exemption for the post of parliamentary secretary from the dual office of profit law. As a result, 21 MLAs of the AAP may now face disqualification as they were appointed as parliamentary secretaries in 2015.

Kejriwal on Tuesday claimed that the parliament secretaries all worked in the post for free. He said they were all given a notification that said they will not be “eligible for any remuneration or any kind of perk”. The Delhi chief minister launched another attack on Modi, as well, alleging that the prime minister was behind the president's decision to reject the Bill. He questioned whether Modi was “not allowing the Delhi government to function because he is unable to digest defeat in Delhi”.
