Delhi Services Bill Passed In Rajya Sabha

Union Home Minister Amit Shah introduced the Government of National Capital Territory of Delhi (Amendment) Bill, 2023 in Rajya Sabha today amid sloganeering by Opposition MPs over the Manipur issue. The Delhi Services Bill seeks to replace the existing ordinance by the central government on the transfers and postings of senior officers in the Delhi government. The bill was passed in the Lok Sabha on August 3. Meanwhile, the Lok Sabha membership of Congress leader Rahul Gandhi has been restored after the Supreme Court stayed his conviction in the defamation case over his ‘Modi’ surname remark. He is likely to speak on behalf of the Congress tomorrow in the no-confidence motion discussion in Lok Sabha
