New Delhi, Feb 14 (IANS) There was no reprise of the hustle and bustle seen when AAP-1 assumed office, with the common man was barred and journalists initially not allowed entry into the Delhi Secretariat Saturday as Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal began his second stint in office.

Journalists were only allowed entry after Kejriwal held a small meeting with his cabinet ministers.

When Kejriwal assumed office for the first time as Delhi chief minister on Dec 28, 2013, there were brainstorming sessions with top government officials, and cabinet meeting on the new government's strategy. This time around, there was nothing of that sort.

Asked why media was not allowed this time, a Delhi government official said: "I don't want my chief minster to be chased by 50 journalists."

On his first day in office in 2013, Kejriwal was besieged by a horde of journalists as he approached his office on the third floor of the sprawling office located near the ITO in central Delhi.

Kejriwal then had also met several Delhi government officials including Police Commissioner B.S. Bassi.
