New Rules for Politicians: Lok Sabha’s Latest Decision.webp

The Lok Sabha has extended the deadline for presenting the Report of the Joint Committee on the Constitution (One Hundred and Thirtieth Amendment) Bill, 2025, the Jammu and Kashmir Reorganisation (Amendment) Bill, 2025, and the Government of Union Territories (Amendment) Bill, 2025, until the first day of the last week of the current monsoon session.

These three bills will implement regulations that prevent any person who has been arrested and is in jail from serving as Prime Minister, Chief Minister, or Minister in the Union or State Government. The bills also stipulate that an accused politician must obtain bail within 30 days of arrest. If they fail to secure bail within 30 days, then on the 31st day, either the Prime Minister or the Chief Minister will have to remove them from their position, otherwise, they will cease to be eligible to hold office according to law.
