Lok Sabha passes bill to unify three municipal corporations in Delhi

<p>
<strong>Lok Sabha on Wednesday passed a bill that seeks to unify the three municipal corporations in Delhi into a single entity.</strong></p>
<p>
The Delhi Municipal Corporation (Amendment) Bill, 2022 was passed by the House after a reply by Home Minister Amit Shah. He rejected opposition allegations that the BJP-led government had brought the bill as it was "scared" of municipal polls in the national capital.</p>
<p>
The bill seeks to ensure a robust mechanism for synergised planning and optimal utilisation of resources and bring about improved governance and more efficient delivery of civic service for the people of Delhi. (ANI)</p>
