Six Jharkhand laws gather dust at guvs office; mob lynching for 15 months #IndiaNEWS #National
<br>The bill provided that violence by 2 or more persons will be considered mob lynching and would be punishable with life imprisonment as well as a fine of up to Rs 25 lakh.
The bill is yet to become a law, even after 15 months of its passing as then Governor Ramesh Bais refused to approve the bill, saying that it did not define mob lynching properly.
Apart from this, he also objected to the difference between the Hindi and English version of the Bill.
When the bill was being passed, state Minister of Rural Development Alamgir Alam had said that people from weaker sections have been victims of violence in such incidents and the law was being made to give protection to the victims, along with strict punishment to elements to carried out such acts.
The BJP MLAs in the Assembly boycotted the House saying that the governments appeasement policy was behind it.
However, the bill was passed despite the BJPs protest.
Significantly, half a dozen bills passed by the state government in the last year and a half could not take the form of law due to Raj Bhavans objections. Four bills got Bais approval only when they were passed again by the Assembly.
Bais was the Governor of Jharkhand for about a year and eight months and he returned 10 bills in the period.
On February 9, Bais returned the Jharkhand Finance Bill-2022 passed by the Jharkhand Assembly for the third time and wrote in his note that the points and details mentioned in the Bill should be seriously reviewed on whether they contained in the State List under Schedule VII of the Constitution of India.
Earlier, the Governor pointed out differences between the Hindi and English versions of the bill and returned it to the government, following which it was modified and sent to Bais for assent.
For the second time, the Governor returned the bill and noted that the revised bill should be re-passed by the Assembly and sent for approval.
The Hemant Soren government in the state is now planning to send the Bill for the fourth time.
On January 29, Bais returned the Domicile Bill passed by the state government by calling a special session of the Legislative Assembly, saying that it was contrary to the provisions of the Constitution and the order of the Supreme Court.
The Soren government had passed the bill in a one-day special session on November 11 had called the bill a historic decision and a concrete step in favour of the local people of the state.
However, a few days later, the Jharkhand High Court also ordered to repeal this bill, calling it contrary to the constitution.
Apart from this, the Jharkhand government had also passed a bill to increase the percentage of OBC, SC and ST reservation in the state during the special session of the Assembly, which has been in the Raj Bhavan for five months and the Governors assent or disapproval has not yet been received.
