Parliament Winter Session 2023: Both the Houses passed the National Capital Territory of Delhi Laws (Special Provisions) Second (Amendment) Bill, 2023 through a voice vote. The Bill, which seeks to extend the validity of a central act addressing unauthorised colonies and slum relocation, was earlier passed by the Lok Sabha and the Rajya Sabha. The Bill amends the National Capital Territory of Delhi Laws (Special Provisions) Second Act, 2011. The Act protects unauthorised development and encroachment by specified persons in the Union Territory of Delhi from punitive action. These include slum dwellers, hawkers, unauthorised colonies, schools, religious and cultural institutions, and agricultural godowns. It requires the central government to take certain measures to address these issues. These include finalising norms, policy guidelines, and strategies, and making orderly arrangements for relocation and rehabilitation. Meanwhile, Lok Sabha also took up the three bills to replace the Indian Penal Code of 1860, Code of Criminal Procedure (CrPC) of 1973 and Indian Evidence Act, of 1872 for consideration and passing.

    Govt has no answer: Shiv Sena (UBT) MP Priyanka Chaturvedi on Parliament security breach

     "The only pre-planned strategy is coming from the central government because they have no answers. The treasury benches have no answer as to how such a big security breach happened. They do not have answers to tell us why a Deputy Speaker for the past 5 years has not been appointed who actually is the point person in ensuring parliamentary security. They are failing to answer why there was no joint secretary appointed for parliamentary security who looks at the level of, security in the parliament. The Home Minister fails to answer why there are over 40 per cent vacant seats, which have not been filled. They failed to answer why they haven't been able to protect, the parliament. And that is why it's a pre-planned strategy from the treasury benches that whoever seeks a discussion from the Home Minister is effectively suspended," said Shiv Sena (UBT) MP Priyanka Chaturvedi.
