Delhi services Bill | 4 parties issue whips to members

Bracing for introduction of “The Government of National Capital Territory of Delhi (Amendment) Bill 2023”, at least four Opposition parties — the Congress, the Trinamool Congress, the RJD, the JD(U) and the the Bharat Rashtra Samithi (BRS) — have issued whips asking their members to be present in the Rajya Sabha for Thursday and Friday and vote against the Bill.

The Union Cabinet on Tuesday approved the Bill to replace the ordinance. All parties under the INDIA coalition have already extended support to the Aam Aadmi Party’s campaign against the Bill which negates a Supreme Court order that gave executive powers to the Delhi government in service matters, including transfer and posting of officers.
