- The 131st Constitutional Amendment Bill, 2025, proposes to bring Chandigarh under Article 240 of the Constitution.
- Article 240 allows the President of India to issue regulations for Union Territories (UTs) that do not have their own legislatures.
- If passed, the Bill will permit the President to make rules directly for Chandigarh, similar to UTs like Lakshadweep and Andaman & Nicobar Islands.
- Chandigarh is currently the shared capital of Punjab and Haryana.
- The central government stated that the proposal aims to streamline rule-making and does not change Chandigarh’s existing administrative setup.
- The Bill is still in the proposal stage and has not been introduced in Parliament.
