AAP’s big move backfires? Controversial twist in Delhi Services Bill saga

In a shocking twist to the ongoing discussions surrounding the Delhi Services Bill, the Rajya Sabha is now shrouded in controversy. The deputy chairman, Harivansh, is on the hot seat as he announced a probe. Why? Four MPs have raised a red flag, alleging that their names have been unauthorizedly included in a proposed select committee of the House. And it doesn’t end there!

AAP’s Bold Proposal Faces Intense Scrutiny

The mastermind behind the select committee proposal? None other than the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) leader and Rajya Sabha MP, Raghav Chadha. But as the deputy chairman read the roster of names for this contentious committee, a shockwave was sent through the Upper House. Home Minister Amit Shah stood up, revealing that not just four, but a whopping five members were crying foul! They claimed their names were on that list without their express consent. And they are pointing fingers directly at AAP’s proposal.

Home Minister Demands Immediate Action!

The stakes are high. Amit Shah isn’t taking this lightly. Labeling it a severe breach of the House’s privilege, he didn’t hesitate to demand an in-depth investigation into this alarming matter. He pressed on, emphasizing the importance of understanding who signed on the MPs’ behalf without their knowledge. Moreover, he urged the Chair to record official statements from the complainants, thus adding fuel to this already blazing controversy.
