Introduction of Constitution (Amendment) Bill Regarding the "Libraries".
Hon'ble Member of Parliament, Shri Tej Pratap Singh Yadav has introduced the Constitution (Amendment) Bill on 3rd August 2018 in the Lok Sabha.
The Bill seeks to amend the Seventh Schedule to the Constitution of India with a view to transfer the subject 'Libraries', from "state list" to "concurrent List" so that the Parliament and the Central Government can also play its vital role in the overall development of a National Library Policy, systems and services in the country.
National Knowledge Commission, too, recommended the need for this amendment to the constitution in its 2006 Report entitled "Libraries: Gateways to Knowledge - A roadmap for revitalisation".
We should congratulate the Hon'ble MP (Email: yadavteju@gmail.com, twitter handle @yadavteju) for his time and effort by raising the issue of development of library sector in the country.
With regards,
Pradeep Kumar
Parliament Library of India
