The Indian Parliament is considering a bill that would allow the removal of the Prime Minister, Chief Ministers, and ministers if they are held on serious criminal charges. This proposed legislation has drawn widespread criticism from opposition parties, who argue that it is politically motivated and threatens democratic principles. Congress MPs Ram Gopal Yadav, Pramod Tiwari, Priyanka Gandhi Vadra, Rajeev Shukla, and others have expressed concerns that the bill could be used to target opposition leaders through false charges, citing the misuse of agencies like the Enforcement Directorate (ED), Income Tax Department, and Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) under the current government. Leaders from the Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD), Indian Union Muslim League (IUML), All India Majlis-e-Ittehadul Muslimeen (AIMIM), and Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) have also criticized the bill, describing it as unconstitutional, draconian, and a step toward authoritarianism. BJP representatives, including Boora Narsaiah Goud and Manan Kumar Mishra, defend the bill as a necessary measure to hold public officials accountable. The debate reflects deep political divisions over the bill's intent and potential impact on India's democratic framework. Separately, the Federal Reserve's composition could shift further toward Trump appointees if Democratic Governor Lisa Cook resigns amid a mortgage fraud criminal referral. Additionally, Novo Nordisk is set to present data on its drugs Wegovy and Ozempic at an upcoming cardiology congress.
