India’s Lok Sabha has just set up a select committee to dive into the Jan Vishwas (Amendment of Provisions) Bill, 2025. Tejasvi Surya, a young and dynamic MP, takes the chairperson role, bringing fresh energy to the group.
This 24-member team pulls from various political parties and regions across the country. It features lawmakers like Praveen Khandelwal, Damodar Agarwal, Mukeshkumar Chandrakaant Dalal, Konda Vishweshwar Reddy, and others such as Ramesh Awasthi, Malvika Devi, and Khagen Murmu. You’ll also spot experienced voices including Suresh Kumar Kashyap, NK Premachandran, T Sumathy alias Thamizhachi Thangapandian, and Sribharat Mathukumalli.
The Jan Vishwas Bill 2025 targets a big shift: decriminalizing minor offenses in more than 40 laws. Instead of criminal penalties, it swaps them for civil fines to cut red tape and boost India’s ease of doing business. This move aims to create a friendlier environment for entrepreneurs and everyday citizens by easing regulatory burdens.
The committee’s job? Scrutinize the proposed changes, collect input from experts and stakeholders, and weigh the socio-economic effects. They’ll make sure everything lines up with India’s Constitution and serves the public good. In the end, they’ll hand over a detailed report to Parliament for debate and tweaks.
This step highlights Parliament’s push to modernize outdated laws and build trust in governance. First floated in past sessions, the Jan Vishwas initiative reflects the government’s drive for simpler rules and clearer regulations.
With Tejasvi Surya leading, experts expect a thorough review that could shape India’s legislative reforms. The committee’s recommendations will play a key role in finalizing the bill before it heads to a vote, potentially transforming how businesses operate in India.
