The Government of National Capital Territory of Delhi (Amendment) Bill, 2023, the Centre's ordinance on the control of services in the capital, was passed in Lok Sabha on Thursday.

“Today India is witnessing the dual face of opposition. For them, the bills for public welfare are not important. To ensure a small party does not leave their alliance, they have joined forces”, Shah tweeted after the bill was passed in the Lok Sabha.

“Services have always been with the Central government. Supreme Court gave an interpretation...From 1993 to 2015 no Chief Minister fought. There were no fights because whichever govt was formed their aim was to serve the people. There is no need to fight, if there is a need to serve. But if they want power they will fight...”, Union home minister Amit Shah said during the debate on the bill in the Lok Sabha.
