Legal Affairs Secy Rajiv Mani stresses uniform legislative drafting across country

New Delhi, July 23 (SocialNews.XYZ) Legislative Department and Department of Legal Affairs Secretary Rajiv Mani called for uniform legislative drafting across the country to ensure consistency and facilitate their effective implementation, an official said on Thursday.

Addressing participants at the 36th Basic Course in Legislative Drafting, organised by the Institute of Legislative Drafting and Research (ILDR), on Wednesday at Vidhayi Sabhagar in Kartavya Bhavan-02, Mani said the course reaffirms the Department's commitment to strengthening legislative drafting capacity through structured training and capacity-building initiatives.

 

The course, being conducted from July 22 to September 25, has brought together 18 trainee officers from 13 states and one Union Territory, a statement said.

The inaugural session was also attended by Manoj Kumar, Additional Secretary and Course Director (ILDR), and other senior officers of the Department.

The course aims to enhance the participants' understanding of the principles of legislative drafting while providing practical exposure to the drafting of legislative instruments, thereby equipping them with the knowledge and skills required for effective legislative drafting.

The programme is expected to further promote uniformity, precision and excellence in legislative drafting and strengthen the institutional capacity of states and Union Territories, the statement said.

Earlier at a conclave held in Mount Abu in Rajasthan for legislative reform, Mani, outlined the Ministry's vision of creating an efficient, accessible, and future-ready legal ecosystem that strengthens good governance and advances the national vision of "Viksit Bharat @2047".

Minister of State (Independent Charge) for Law and Justice, Arjun Ram Meghwal, inaugurated the Reform Utsav and Chintan Shivir on July 4.

The Utsav and Shivir focused on deliberations regarding legal, legislative, and institutional reforms aimed at developing a modern, technology-driven, and citizen-centric legal ecosystem, the statement said.
