The AAP government has control over everything in Delhi except land, police and law and order. This division of powers in Delhi has been highlighted in Article 239AA of the Indian Constitution, under Part VIII.
In a recent ruling, the Supreme Court ruled that the Delhi government does have control over all services in the national capital, including the Indian Administrative Service (IAS), but land, police, and law and order still remain under the Centre.
