AAP asks L-G to quit over tree felling in Ridge area, dares him for a debate
The HinduDelhi’s ruling Aam Aadmi Party on Monday sought the resignation of Lieutenant-Governor V.K. He told reporters that the affidavit filed by the contractor has “revealed” that initially, Forest Department officials had denied them permission but later gave verbal orders to cut the trees. ‘DDA knew status’ “When the L-G visited the area on February 3, the Forest Department and the DDA knew that there was no permission to cut the trees,” he added. The Minister said two emails presented before the Supreme Court by the DDA show that the authority’s executive engineer had told the chief engineer that on February 3, the L-G visited the site and ordered that “all trees coming in the way of the road should be felled”. The L-G has been exposed,” he said, alleging that Mr. Saxena got the trees cut by “pressuring officials and deceiving the Supreme Court”.
