Kiren Rijiju Hails Modi’s 12-Year Legislative Transformation

Rijiju pointed to the construction of the new Parliament building as a tangible departure from colonial-era structures, signaling a modern democratic identity. Central to this period of reform was the Nari Shakti Vandan Adhiniyam, which mandates gender-based reservations in the Lok Sabha and state assemblies, marking a significant push toward inclusive representation.

Beyond institutional symbols, the government’s record includes the abrogation of Article 370 and the nationwide implementation of the GST. Legislative efforts also focused on pruning the statute books of obsolete laws while introducing constitutional protections for the National Commission for Backward Classes. Through the digitalization of parliamentary procedures, the administration transitioned toward a paperless environment intended to streamline the legislative process.
