JALLIANWALA BAGH NATIONAL MEMORIAL ACT, 1951

Dec. 7, 2018

The Union Cabinet has approved the Amendment of the Jallianwala Bagh National Memorial Act, 1951.

About:

  • The amendment aims to ensure representation of the Opposition Party in the Trust and empower the government to terminate and replace a Trustee to participate in the functioning of the Trust.

  • In the existing Act, there is a provision for representation of a single national political party. Deletion of the party-specific member from the Trust will make it apolitical.
