Delhi services Bill to be tabled in Lok Sabha on August 1

A Bill that is set to replace the Delhi services Ordinance designating the Lieutenant Governor (L-G) as the authority who will have the final say on the postings and transfer of all bureaucrats serving under the Delhi government will be introduced in the Lok Sabha on August 1.

A top floor manager of the government in the Parliament told The Hindu that the government will try to push through The Government of National Capital Territory of Delhi (Amendment) Act, 2023, on Tuesday. Asked about the scheduling of the no-confidence debate, the source claimed that the government is ready and he expected the Speaker Om Birla to schedule the debate soon.

The draft Bill, which mandated the creation of an authority for transfers and postings of senior officers in the Delhi government, has been circulated among MPs.
