Centre-State logjam

Sir,
Delhi’s unique position as the Union capital, under the Constitution, has led to constant tension between the Centre and the State Government. If the Governments at the two centres of power are of the same party, there is less bickering. In the event, however, of two different political parties ruling the Centre and Delhi, there is bound to be trouble, as in the present case.
There has been constant trouble between the BJP-led Government at the Centre and Arvind Kejriwal’s Aam Aadmi Party Government. This is not to justify the midnight drama at Kejriwal’s residence wherein in the presence of the Chief Minister, the Chief Secretary was reportedly roughed up. This is, perhaps, the first instance of this type and needs to be condemned and dealt with firmly.
Yours etc…
