‘The ordinance can be defeated’

The AAP wants to ensure the centre’s bid to replace the ordinance with a bill is defeated when it is brought into parliament.

On May 19, the centre brought into effect the ordinance to create an authority for the transfer and posting of Group-A officers in Delhi, which the AAP government had called a deception with the Supreme Court verdict on control of services.

The ordinance came a week after the Supreme Court handed over the control of services in Delhi, excluding police, public order and land, to the elected government.

The centre seeks to set up a National Capital Civil Service Authority for the transfer of and disciplinary proceedings against Group-A officers from the DANICS cadre. DANICS refers to Delhi, Andaman and Nicobar, Lakshadweep, Daman and Diu, and Dadra and. Nagar Haveli Civil Services.

Transfer and postings of all officers of the Delhi government were under the executive control of the Lieutenant Governor before the Supreme Court’s May 11 verdict.
