With the objective of giving a proper “interpretation” of a Supreme Court ruling, the government on Monday introduced a bill in Lok Sabha that seeks to define certain role and powers of the Lieutenant Governor of Delhi. Union Minister of State for Home G. Kishan Reddy introduced the Government of National Capital Territory of Delhi (Amendment) Bill, 2021. The Bill makes it mandatory for the Delhi government to take the opinion of the L-G before any executive action in the city. It also bars Delhi government from making any rule to enable itself or its committees to consider the matters of day-to-day administration of the Capital or conduct inquiries in relation to the administrative decisions. Any rule made till this Act comes into effect will be void, according to the Bill. In this edition of Big Picture we will analyse the Government of National Capital Territory of Delhi (Amendment) Bill, 2021 and the tussle between Centre and state in Delhi.
