Lok Sabha approves Bankers’ Books Evidence Bill without debate
The Lok Sabha recently approved the Bankers’ Books Evidence Bill, a significant update from an older statute. This new law modernizes the procedures for presenting digital banking records in legal settings. Despite opposition members’ protests and disruptions in the house, the government stood firm, accusing them of hindering religious initiatives and temple projects. Ultimately, the bill passed through a voice vote before the house adjourned.
