Stakeholders: PM, CMs removal clause 'unconstitutional'

A parliamentary panel has raised alarms about the anti-corruption bill's removal clause, deeming it unconstitutional for officials to be dismissed after thirty days without due process. Stakeholders advocate for a sunset clause that would automatically reverse barring decisions, and suggest using "suspension" instead to avoid stigmatizing officials. This move aims to balance accountability with fairness, and the committee's recommendations will soon be presented in Lok Sabha, signaling a potential shift in how anti-corruption measures are framed and enforced in the country.
