Supreme Court to hear Delhi government’s plea against Delhi Services Ordinance on July 10

The plea moved before the Supreme Court through advocate Shadan Farasat said that the ordinance:

i) violates the scheme of federal, democratic governance for the National Capital Territory of Delhi in Article 239AA of the Constitution;

ii) is manifestly arbitrary;

iii) legislatively overrules or reviews a Constitution Bench judgment;

iv) is an impermissible and unconstitutional abuse of ordinance-making powers under Article 123 of the Constitution.
