Earlier in a memorandum to Meena, Kejriwal had sought his explanation over allegations of being negligent in work and intimidating his juniors and threatened action.
Meena, in his letter, said the chief minister was “not the appropriate authority to institute disciplinary proceedings against the undersigned. Only the central government is the authority competent to institute disciplinary proceeding”.
“Your good self not being the competent authority and without jurisdiction has issued memorandum which was illegal,” he said, asking Kejriwal to withdraw the memorandum “immediately failing which he would be constrained to initiate appropriate action as per law”.
