Jung had yesterday rejected Maliwal's appointment as chairperson of Delhi Commission for Women, saying his approval had not been sought on it.
"I think this is a minor technical glitch because what is being said is that the file (my appointment) was not sent to LG's office. I think it will get resolved. It is not a very major issue," she told reporters.
"In case the Delhi government decides to withdraw the notification of my appointment, we will abide by it," she said, hoping that the LG will give his approval as "my credentials speak for" eligibility for the post.
Maliwal is wife of Aam Aadmi Party leader Navin Jaihind and has been an advisor to Kejriwal on public grievances and handles his Janta Samwad. She has been associated with the AAP chief since India Against Corruption (IAC) days.
In its letter to CM office, the LG's office said that it did not recognise the appointment because LG's approval was not sought as per rules.
