Delhi Deputy Chief Minister Manish Sisodia on Monday accused the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP)-led Central government of an attempt to run the Delhi government through the backdoor, giving more power to the Lieutenant Governor. The reaction came after the National Capital Territory of Delhi (Amendment) Bill-2021 was moved in the Lok Sabha.
Sisodia termed the Centre's move undemocratic and unconstitutional and questioned what was the need for an elected government when it has no power to decide on any subject.
The Centre moved a bill in the Lok Sabha on Monday where it proposed that government in the national capital territory of Delhi means the Lieutenant Governor of Delhi. The Bill gives discretionary powers to the L-G even in matters where the Legislative Assembly of Delhi is empowered to make laws. 🔴Watch ABP News Live 24/7 [ Ссылка ]
