Setback for AAP government, Delhi HC says MK Meena to remain as ACB chief

2019-03-01 1

Mukesh Kumar Meena, the police officer appointed to head Delhi's Anti-Corruption Bureau or ACB, must be allowed to access his office, the Delhi High Court said today, ruling against the government of Arvind Kejriwal. Mr Meena, a Delhi Police joint commissioner, was deputed two weeks ago to the anti-corruption agency by Lieutenant Governor Najeeb Jung. Chief Minister Kejriwal, whose government is in the midst of a vigorous war for control with the Lieutenant Governor, had already handpicked a candidate for ACB chief, SS Yadav, another senior police officer. Mr Meena outranks Mr Yadav. Last week, Mr Yadav accused Mr Meena of threatening his life, while Mr Kejriwal and his ministers alleged that Mr Meena has been soft on tackling graft.
