Delhi HC refuses to order special session of Assembly to table CAG report

The Delhi High Court on Friday refused to direct a sitting of the state assembly for tabling several CAG reports on governance. Justice Sachin Datta however said there was an "inordinate delay" on part of the Delhi government in the matter.
