Centre on March 15 introduced a bill in the Lok Sabha seeking to give more powers to the lieutenant governor in Delhi. It specified that any decision of the state cabinet or government would need his “opinion” before implementation. Condemnation of the move by the Kejriwal government was swift with the CM himself calling it “unconstitutional and undemocratic”. Government of National Capital Territory of Delhi (Amendment) Bill 2021 says the LG can specify any matter for which the elected government will need to get his 'opinion' & that the expression, Government', referred to in any law to be made by the assembly shall mean the LG. Slamming the move, Kejriwal tweeted, “This is against 4.7.18 Constitution Bench judgement which said that files will not be sent to LG, elected govt will take all decisions and send copy of decision to LG”.
