New Delhi:
The Justice JS Verma committee, which has said that "failure of governance" is the root cause for sexual crime, has put the ball for action in the government's court by meeting a tough 30-day deadline to submit its recommendations on changes in law.
Law Minister Ashwani Kumar spoke to NDTV after the report was submitted. Below are the highlights:
- Justice Verma report says debar MPs once court takes cognisance
- Not fair to debar legislators unless convicted
- Election Commission's report on electoral reforms to be discussed in Cabinet
- Changes to law to be brought in Budget session
