In a significant move, Union Home Minister Amit Shah will introduce three bills in the Lok Sabha on Wednesday, including the Constitution (130th Amendment) Bill, 2025. The bill seeks to provide a legal framework for the removal of Union or State Ministers, including Chief Ministers, who face allegations of corruption or serious criminal offences and remain in custody for at least 30 consecutive days.

According to the List of Business in the Lok Sabha, Shah will move the Constitution (One Hundred and Thirtieth Amendment) Bill, 2025, along with the Government of Union Territories (Amendment) Bill, 2025. He will also seek to refer these bills to a Joint Committee of Parliament comprising 21 Lok Sabha members, to be nominated by the Speaker, and 10 Rajya Sabha members, to be nominated by the Deputy Chairman.

Another bill—the Jammu and Kashmir Reorganisation (Amendment) Bill, 2025—proposes to amend Section 54 of the Jammu and Kashmir Reorganisation Act, 2019. Currently, the Act does not provide for the dismissal of the Chief Minister or Ministers who are arrested and remanded in custody on serious criminal charges.
