They don’t tolerate ‘single engine’ govts anywhere in India: Sibal’s dig at Centre after Parliament passes Delhi bill
PTI, Aug 8, 2023, 10:19 AM IST
With Parliament passing the contentious Delhi services bill, Rajya Sabha MP Kapil Sibal on Tuesday took a swipe at the Centre, saying they don’t tolerate “single engine” governments anywhere in India.
Parliament on Monday passed the Government of National Capital Territory of Delhi (Amendment) Bill, 2023, that gives the central government control over bureaucrats in the Delhi government with the Rajya Sabha approving it with 131 votes in favour and 102 against.
In a tweet, Sibal said, “NCT of Delhi (Amendment Bill) 2023 approved by Parliament. Allows Centre to control services of bureaucrats in the Delhi government to further emasculate the autonomy necessary for representative democracy.” “They don’t tolerate ‘single engine’ governments anywhere in India!” he said on Twitter.
