Parliament took measures to protect citizens of all sections of the country.

Birla said that our Parliament has taken measures to protect citizens of all sections of the country by making laws like the Rights of Persons with Disabilities Act, 2016; the Protection of Transgender Persons Rights Act and a law reserving one-third of the seats for women in the Lok Sabha and State Legislative Assemblies. Along with this, new labor laws have been made for the welfare and social security of workers in the unorganized sector.

 

Various parliamentary committees give suggestions regarding many schemes.
