This legal challenge targets a 2017 office memorandum issued by the Union Home Ministry, which the Delhi government claims undermines its elected mandate.
A bench of Justices Sanjiv Khanna and Sanjay Kumar will preside over the case.

The petition emphasises that the elected government is effectively being stripped of its right to choose its legal representatives and determine their compensation.
