CPI(M) panel demands rollback of NCT Bill
The Hindu
The Delhi State Committee of the CPI(M) on Tuesday demanded immediate withdrawal of the National Capital Territory of Delhi (Amendment) Bill introduced in Parliament.
It said that the move by the Central government to further truncate the limited powers of the elected State government is a direct insult to the people of Delhi who elected this government. The party said that it was an undemocratic and authoritarian takeover of the Delhi administration by the BJP-led Central government. The Bill introduced in the pretext of giving clarity to the Supreme Court order of July 4, 2018, the party added, goes against its spirit as it had upheld that the L-G is bound by the ‘aid and advice’ of the elected government.More Related News
