Amid the ongoing controversy regarding the바카라 웹사이트ordinance on control of services in Delhi, the Centre on Monday told the Supreme Court that바카라 웹사이트the ordinance was바카라 웹사이트promulgated as officers working in the vigilance department were "targeted" by the city government, and bureaucrats and officials were humiliated.
On May 11, a five-judge constitution bench of the apex court had said the Delhi government has legislative and executive powers over administration of services except for public order, police and land.
Follwoing this decision, Centre had on May 19 promulgated the Government of National Capital Territory of Delhi (Amendment) Ordinance, 2023, in a bid바카라 웹사이트to create an authority for transfer and posting of Group-A officers in Delhi.
Launching a scathing attack on the Aam Admi Party (AAP)-led Delhi Government, the Centre claimed in an affidavit that after the May 11 judgement of the constitution bench of the top court, ministers in the Delhi government started a "witch-hunt" and harassment of officers to influence their decision making.
"To elaborate the above, the officers working in the vigilance department, that is the department which handles serious vigilance issues relating to complaints of corruption, thus involving, criminal and other politically sensitive cases, came to be specifically targeted by the elected government," the Centre said in its affidavit.
The Centre also brought it to the apex court's notice that complaints were received from Special Secretary (Vigilance) and two other officers, pointing out a serious incident of trespassing in the said officer's chamber and taking unlawful custody of certain files.
The affidavit further said, "However, the elected government remained arrogant to the official duties of the officers concerned and handled the whole affair in a highly insensitive manner, as evinced from their act and conduct of repeatedly insulting and humiliating the senior officers as well as the subordinate officers of the vigilance department."

Before the May 11 top court verdict, the transfer and posting of all officers of the Delhi government were under the executive control of the LG.
