The AAP government has roped in top legal eagles Gopal Subramaniam, Indira Jaising, Rajeev Dhavan and P Chidambaram to represent them in the apex court. THE ARGUMENT"Delhi High Court has erroneously concluded that Lieutenant Governor of Delhi is not bound by the aid and advice of the council of ministers. In 1991, the parliament, through the 69th Amendment incorporated an Article 239AA (Special Provisions with respect to Delhi) into the constitution. The accountability can be discharged by the executive only if it enjoys the power to execute the decisions of the legislature," the government will tell the apex court. This is the simple meaning of these key provisions in the Constitution relating to Delhi," said the government.
