Parliament Passes Bill Tightening Birth and Death Registration Rules

The Rajya Sabha has passed the Registration of Births and Deaths (Amendment) Bill, following its earlier clearance by the Lok Sabha. The bill proposes amendments to the Registration of Births and Deaths Act of 1969 to strengthen existing registration norms.

The legislation aims to bring greater accountability and legal oversight to delayed registration cases.
