Centre lists four bills for introduction with only four days left for winter session to end
New Delhi: The union government on Monday (December 15) issued a supplementary list of business in which four key new bills are sought to be introduced with just four days left for the winter session to end on December 19.
This includes The Repealing and Amending Bill 2025, The Viksit Bharat Shiksha Adhishthan Bill 2025, The Sustainable Harnessing and Advancement of Nuclear Energy for Transforming India Bill 2025, and The Viksit Bharat-Guarantee for Rozgar and Ajeevika Mission (Gramin) Bill 2025.
The Wire reported earlier today that the Viksit Bharat—Guarantee for Rozgar and Ajeevika Mission (Gramin) Bill, which will have the acronym VB–G RAM G Act, if passed will replace the Mahatma Gandhi National Rural Employment Guarantee Scheme, the world's largest rural jobs scheme.
The Viksit Bharat Shiksha Adhishthan Bill, 2025, according to the list of business, will be introduced by Union education minister Dharmendra Pradhan. The Bill provides for repealing the University Grants Commission Act, 1956, the All India Council for Technical Education Act, 1987 and the National Council for Teacher Education Act, 1993.
The Bill according to its statement of objects and reasons provides for the formation of a Viksit Bharat Shiksha Adhishthan along with the three Councils. These include the Viksit Bharat Shiksha Viniyaman Parishad (the Regulatory Council), the Viksit Bharat Shiksha Gunvatta Parishad (the Accreditation Council) and the Viksit Bharat Shiksha Manak Parishad (the Standards Council) to enable and empower Universities and other higher educational institutions to achieveexcellence in teaching, learning, research and innovation, as an outcome of better co-ordination and determination of standards in institutions for higher education or research and scientific and technical institutions.
The Viksit Bharat Shiksha Adhishthan will be an apex umbrella body to provide direction for comprehensive and holistic growth of higher education and ensure co-ordination between the Councils.
The Sustainable Harnessing and Advancement of Nuclear Energy for Transforming India Bill, 2025 will be introduced by Jitendra Singh which seeks to open the India's nuclear energy sector to the private sector.
According to the statement of objects and reasons the Bill will repeal the Atomic Energy Act, 1962 and the Civil Liability for Nuclear Damage Act, 2010.
“The new legislation is aligned to achieve the objectives of increasing the share of nuclear energy in the total energy mix of India, facilitate innovation in nuclear science and technology, expand its applications to non-power applications and continue to honour India's obligations towards safety, security, safeguards and towards nuclear liability,” it says.
India has set an ambitious target to achieve energy independence with a roadmap for decarbonisation of the economy by 2070 and to achieve 100 gigawatt of nuclear power capacity by 2047.
“To achieve this goal, it is imperative to enact a new legislation to harness the full potential of India's nuclear energy and indigenous resources through active involvement of both the public and private sectors. It further seeks to leverage the contribution of domestic nuclear energy for augmenting the global nuclear energy ecosystem,” it says.
The Repealing and Amending Bill 2025 to be introduced by Minister of State (independent charge) of law and justice Arjun Ram Meghwal only states that the Bill will repeal certain enactments and amend certain other enactments.
