New Delhi, Jan 8 (IBNS) Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal on Monday attacked Lieutenant Governor Anil Baijal over recent deaths due to cold in the nation capital.

Kejriwal said the Lieutenant Governor did not consult the government before  CEO of Delhi Urban Shelter Improvement Board (DUSIB) was appointed.

The DUSIB looks after the issue of night-shelters for the homeless in New Delhi.

"Media reporting 44 deaths of homeless due to cold. Am issuing show cause notice to CEO, DUSIB. Negligible deaths last year. This year, LG appointed a useless officer. LG refuses to consult us before appointing officers. How do we run govt like this?," Kejriwal tweeted.
