Lok Sabha
New Delhi: The government is going to introduce an important bill in the Lok Sabha on Wednesday (August 20). Under this bill, if the Prime Minister, Union Minister and Minister of State are arrested, they will have to withdraw from the post. At the same time, this rule will be applicable even after the arrest of the Chief Minister and ministers of the union territories. He will be removed from the post even if he is detailed in the Serious Criminal charge.
Recently these matters have been in discussion
Recently, the investigation agencies arrested Chief Ministers and Ministers of some states in separate cases. But one of the Chief Ministers did not resign despite arrests. In fact, the Enforcement Directorate (ED) arrested the then CM of Delhi Arvind Kejriwal in a case but did not resign from his post despite going to jail.
At the same time, ED also arrested the then CM of Jharkhand Hemant Soren in a case but he resigned from the post. Apart from this, former Deputy Chief Minister Manish Sisodia has also been arrested. In such a situation, if the new bill is passed, then it will directly mean that the leader sitting on the post will have to leave the chair.
