The Centre today courted a controversy by promulgating its first ordinance to amend a law clearing the way for appointment of former chairman of the Telecom Regulatory Authority of India, Nripendra Mishra, as Principal Secretary to the Prime Minister. The move invited a sharp attack from the Congress.

The announcement was made after the government promulgated the ordinance amending the TRAI Act, which would have prevented him from taking up the assignment.
