Minister Mishra hails Constitution Amendment Bill
The Business Guardian
|August 25, 2025
Delhi Minister Kapil Mishra on Sunday welcomed the Constitution (130th Amendment) Bill, 2025, calling it a historic step towards eliminating corruption.
"Prime Minister Narendra Modi has resolved to eradicate corruption, no matter who the corrupt individual is. This is such a historic bill that even if the Prime Minister is arrested for 30 days, he would have to resign from his post. Delhi has witnessed this pain; in Delhi, Arvind Kejriwal and his ministers committed the sin of running Delhi from jail. This decision by the Prime Minister is far-reaching and strikes at the heart of corruption..." Mishra told ANI.
Union Home Minister Amit Shah moved the Bill in the Lok Sabha on Wednesday. The Bill provides for the removal of the Prime Minister, Chief Minister or any other Minister in the central or a state government, if he is arrested and detained in custody on account of serious criminal offences. Two more bills with similar provisions in Puducherry and Jammu and Kashmir were also introduced in the Lok Sabha.
The three bills have been referred to a Joint Parliamentary Committee for examination. Opposition parties have opposed the move.
