Amit Shah May Table Centre's Bill To Replace Delhi Ordinance Monday

The legislation, which aims to replace the ordinance that has sparked a massive face-off between the Arvind Kejriwal government and the centre, will be introduced by Union Home Minister Amit Shah, the sources said.

A Bill empowering the centre to control postings of Delhi bureaucrats is likely to be introduced in Lok Sabha Monday, according to sources. The legislation, which aims to replace the ordinance that has sparked a massive face-off between the Arvind Kejriwal government and the centre, will be introduced by Union Home Minister Amit Shah, the sources said.

While the legislation is expected to smoothly sail through Lok Sabha, it will face a challenge in Rajya Sabha, where it lacks majority.

The cabinet yesterday cleared the Bill to be tabled in Parliament.
