The union cabinet has given approval to the new amendment to the Government of NCT of Delhi (GNCTD) Act which makes it mandatory for the Delhi government to send legislative proposals for the LG's opinion 15 days in advance and seven days for administrative proposals. Approval by the cabinet has once again given rise to the old debate of LG's power and role vs. the Delhi government's mandate. And, it is in this light, the SC judgment of 2018 - by five judge constitution bench - in the matter of Govt. of NCT Delhi v. UoI comes to our mind!

With issue of public consultations on law-making once again making headlines due to the recently passed #FarmLaws2020, India's track record on public consultations (core of democracy & constitutional society) is poor and seems to be deteriorating.

@ritambhara4 Out of total 186 bills introduced in the Parliament b/w 2014-19, 90% bills never came up for public consultations or witnessed incomplete consultations. Draft Coastal Regulation Zone Notification 2019 and EIA 2020 are recent examples where the consultation process was bypassed. Image
