more-inLieutenant-Governor Anil Baijal on Sunday wrote to Delhi Chief Minister (CM) Arvind Kejriwal saying that it was “unfortunate” that the public and the media were being deliberately “misled” that the L-G was delaying the AAP government’s CCTV project. The L-G’s response came after Deputy Chief Minister Manish Sisodia announced that the CM and all AAP MLAs would walk to the L-G House on May 14 seeking nod for CCTV cameras to be installed in the city. Award of work“No proposal relating to award of work for installation of CCTV cameras has been received in the office of the L-G. So to use these cameras effectively for law enforcement, prevention of crime and investigation, an SOP/regulatory framework for CCTVs is imperative,” wrote the L-G. “The order setting up the committee nowhere directs that the work of award of CCTV cameras by elected government be stalled,” read L-G’s letter.
