New Delhi/IBNS: A massive chaos broke out in the Lok Sabha after Union Home Minister Amit Shah on Wednesday tabled the bill to "remove arrested Prime Minister, Chief Ministers and ministers", media reports said.

The opposition parliamentarians raised slogans, tore the bill's copies and threw in front of the Home Minister opposing the government.

Congress MP Manish Tiwari said, "This bill is squarely destructive to the basic structure of the Constitution."

While the opposition MPs allege the bill is being brought in a hurry, Shah denied such a claim.

The bill will be sent to the joint parliamentary panel.

What is the bill about?

The bill will ensure the removal of elected representatives arrested or detained on serious criminal charges from office.

The proposed law will cover the Prime Minister, Union ministers, Chief Ministers, and ministers of Union Territories.

Besides this, two other bills- the Government of Union Territories (Amendment) Bill 2025, the Constitution (One Hundred And Thirtieth Amendment) Bill 2025, and the Jammu and Kashmir Reorganisation (Amendment) Bill 2025- could be moved to a parliamentary committee.

Priyanka Gandhi Vadra calls it 'draconian bill'

Congress MP Priyanka Gandhi Vadra said, "I see the bill for the removal of CMs and ministers as a completely draconian thing. To say it as an anti-corruption measure, is just to pull a veil across the eyes of the people.

"Tomorrow, you can put any kind of a case on a CM, have him arrested for 30 days without conviction, and he ceases to be a Chief Minister. It is absolutely wrong, anti-constitutional, undemocratic and very unfortunate."
