It's likely that a dedicated social worker may be appointed as Delhi LG. The post fell vacant after Najib Jung quit on 23 December. Initially, speculations were rife that a bureaucrat like Anil Baijal, Ajayraj Sharma, K J Alphons, Shakti Sinha and few others could be considered. Indeed, the opinion was firmed up on the selection of one of these civil servants. On Sunday, a JT Sec was kept on alert for dashing to Hyderabad for getting the approval of the President for the selected candidate. However, at the last moment, the decision was held in abeyance. And fresh deliberations are said to have begun.
