New Delhi [India], May 26 (ANI): Delhi Chief Minister and AAP national convenor Arvind Kejriwal have sought time to meet Congress president Mallikarjun Kharge and party leader Rahul Gandhi to seek Nationalist Congress Party's support against the Centre's ordinance on control of administrative services in the national capital.

Delhi CM also met Shiv Sena (UBT) leader Uddhav Thackeray on Wednesday.

The Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) national convenor accused the Centre of "taking away the rights" of the people of Delhi and said that the ordinance "should not" be allowed to pass in Rajya Sabha.

This comes after the Union Government on May 19 brought an ordinance to notify rules for the Government of National Capital Territory of Delhi (GNCTD) regarding the 'transfer posting, vigilance and other incidental matters'.

The ordinance was brought to amend the Government of National Capital Territory of Delhi Act, 1991 and it circumvents the Supreme Court judgement in the Centre vs Delhi case.

Earlier, CM Kejriwal met West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee in Kolkata on Tuesday and sought her support against the ordinance. (ANI)
