The Delhi Legislative Assembly rejected Arvind Kejriwal’s request to live-stream the Privileges Committee proceedings over the ‘Phaansi Ghar’ issue, stating the rules mandate confidentiality and expressing surprise at the former chief minister’s claimed ignorance of the committee procedures.
The Delhi Secretariat stated that presenting Comptroller and Auditor General (CAG) reports at this stage would serve no purpose since the legislative assembly session concludes in February. It emphasized that the Speaker’s authority to convene assembly sittings is an internal matter, falling beyond the scope of judicial scrutiny. This aligns with the assembly’s procedural independence and established practices.
