Solicitor General Mohan Parasaran wrote to Lieutenant Governor Najeeb Jung about the Jan Lokpal Bill being 'unconstitutional'.The Solicitor General, Mohan Parasaran , insisted that the Lieutenant Governor's approval is necessary before passing the Jan Lokpal bill but he added that Bill was completely unconstitutional. Mohan Parasaran's opinion was asked for by L-G Najeeb Jung when he complained that the bill was passed without the consent of the cabinet. To this the Solicitor General replied that it would be unconstitutional.
The SG is also believed to have told the LG that Lokpal and Lokayukta Act, passed last year by Parliament, is in force and a Lokpal Bill in Delhi will be repugnant to the Central law. Therefore, it will require the assent of the President.
After Delhi Jan Lokpal Bill came under scrutiny following solicitor general’s claims that it is unconstitutional, AAP leader Ashutosh said that Lieutenant Governor Najeeb Jung is working for Congress against AAP’s Delhi government with the purpose to destabilize national capital’s government. Ashutosh said that any conversation between the LG and the solicitor general is confidential and should not be leaked and if it does, something is suspicious. Further, he claimed that the bill is well within the government’s rights and is constitutional.
