										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>New Delhi, August 20, 2025 —</strong> In a bold and controversial move, Union Home Minister Amit Shah on Wednesday introduced three explosive bills in the Lok Sabha, potentially allowing the forced removal of the Prime Minister, Chief Ministers, and other ministers if they remain in judicial custody for 30 consecutive days for offences punishable by five years or more in prison</p>
<p><img fetchpriority="high" decoding="async" class="size-full wp-image-25867 aligncenter" src="https://theedgemedia.in/wp-content/uploads/2025/08/images-8.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="168" /></p>
<p><strong>The legislation includes:</strong></p>
<p><em>The Constitution (One Hundred and Thirtieth Amendment) Bill, 2025,</em></p>
<p><em> The Government of Union Territories (Amendment) Bill, 2025, and</em></p>
<p><em> The Jammu &amp; Kashmir Reorganization (Amendment) Bill, 2025.</em></p>
<p>Together, they lay down sweeping rules that allow for immediate ouster—without conviction—of political leaders who are detained for a month straight.</p>
<p>As uproar engulfed the House—with opposition MPs tearing up copies and staging loud protests—the bills were swiftly referred to a Joint Parliamentary Committee (JPC) comprising members from both Houses. The JPC is expected to submit its report before the next session, tentatively in November</p>
<p>Critics have condemned the bills as authoritarian and unconstitutional, warning of potential misuse to destabilize opposition governments. Supporters, however, praise the measures as a clampdown on political criminality.</p>
<p>This legislative bombshell promises to ignite one of the most heated episodes of this Monsoon Session—redefining political accountability in India, for better or worse.</p>
