The Government of National Capital Territory of Delhi (Amendment) Act, 2021, came into force yesterday, according to a Home Ministry notification.

The Delhi government will now have to seek the opinion of the Lieutenant Governor before taking any executive action.

The law was controversially cleared in Parliament last month amid opposition protests in both houses.
