Delhi LG, CM discuss names for new DERC chairperson

Delhi Lieutenant Governor V K Saxena and Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal on July 19 held a meeting at Raj Niwas here to discuss the names of candidates for the post of DERC chairperson, officials said. Details of the meeting, which went on for nearly an hour, were not known immediately.

Ahead of the meeting, the Delhi government had furnished three names before the LG. The Supreme Court had on July 19 asked the two constitutional functionaries to rise above "political bickering" and discuss who could head the Delhi Electricity Regulatory Commission (DERC).

The court will take up the issue for consideration again on July 20.
