Gupta said Jain has "unduly" interfered in the matter of nomination of four members to the DMC. After the completion minor of through process between October 22 to December 2, 2014, the names of four members were decided and file for their nomination was sent to the Lt. Governor on January 7, 2015.

After obtaining clearance from the Election Commission the nominations were notified.
 

In meanwhile, AAP won the elections and with undue haste they interfered in the matter of nominations to DMC and stayed the nomination made during the President rule.
