Led by Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal and his deputy Manish Sisodia, AAP MLAs marched to Lieutenant Governor VK Saxena’s office on Monday to protest against his objection to a proposal to send teachers to Finland for training.

Kejriwal alleged that Saxena cannot take independent decisions, but he is still doing that. The Delhi government’s works are being deliberately impeded for political reasons, he alleged, and added that “the LG is not our headmaster to check our homework. He has to say yes or no to our proposals”.
The LG’s office, however, asserted that it has not rejected the proposal but has advised the government to evaluate it in totality.

Police halted their march a few metres away from LG’s residence. The AAP legislators stood there, adamant on their demand to meet Saxena.
Sources in the LG’s office said a message was sent to Kejriwal that Saxena has agreed to meet with him and his deputy.
Kejriwal, however, insisted that his MLAs be allowed to attend the meeting as well. They later returned to the Assembly.
