Explanation:

The Supreme Court said the Delhi Lieutenant Governor cannot act independently and must take the aid and advise of the Council of Ministers.The Supreme Court has restored the primary role played by the “representative government”.All decisions by Delhi’s council of ministers must be communicated to the L-G but that does not mean his concurrence is required.The LG has no independent authority to take decisions except in matters under Article 239 or matters outside the purview of the government.Except for issues of public order, police and land, the Lieutenant Governor is bound by the aid and advice of the Council of Ministers.The court said, L-G cannot act as an obstructionist and can refer issues to the President only in exceptional matters and not as a general rule.The government need not obtain LG concurrence in every issue of day-to-day governance.The national capital enjoys special status and is not a full state.Hence, the role of the L-G is different than that of a Governor.In case of differences of opinion, the LG and the NCT government should act with constitutional morality and trust for each other.
