Parliament panel seeks changes to Bill on removal of PM, CMs and Ministers after 30 days in jail

A parliamentary committee has proposed amendments to a contentious bill that would remove prime ministers, chief ministers, and ministers if they spend 30 days in jail. While the aim is to prevent "governance from custody," the panel suggests replacing "removal" with "suspension" and tweaking the arrest-based trigger. Most opposition parties boycotted the panel, claiming the bill was politically motivated. This move underscores the ongoing tensions between legislative intentions and political maneuvering in the country's governance framework.
