Finally Arvind Kejriwal lost the Battle after 49 Days over Jan Lokpal

In Delhi Assembly Failed to introduce priority legislation

On Friday Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal resigned , 48 days after he assumed power, and recommended the dissolution of the State Assembly.


Many viewed his decision as a strategic move, allowing him to shift his focus to a more ambitious goal: Buoyed by its success in Delhi, his Aam Aadmi Party now plans to put forward hundreds of candidates in the general elections in May


Posing an unexpected challenge the country’s two heavyweights, Indian National Congress and Bharatiya Janata Party, known by its acronym, B.J.P.


Another sobering reality is that governing without a majority in any legislative body here is frustrating, if not impossible.


As chief minister, Mr. Kejriwal did not have control over central functions, like the Delhi Police.


 


That friction had boiled over almost immediately, and Mr. Kejriwal — far more experienced in activism than administration — declared a sit-in outside the office of the minister who oversees the city police. Opposition legislators had started a theatrical campaign to force one of his ministers to resign.

Mr. Kejriwal said he would request that new elections for Delhi’s legislative assembly be held as soon as possible. Typically, the lieutenant governor would invite the assembly’s largest party — in this case, the B.J.P., which has 31 seats — to form a new state government.


If the B.J.P. refuses, the assembly will be dissolved and new elections will be held. In the interim, Delhi would come under presidential rule.
