ACTION ON REPORT OF CONSTITUTION REVIEW COMMISSION


LOK SABHA

Action on the recommendations made by the National Commission to Review the Constitution lies with the Ministries/Department of the Government of India, which are administratively concerned with the subject matter of the recommendations. The concerned Ministries/Departments have been requested to examine the recommendations. The examination of the recommendations, which is a time consuming process, has been initiated and these require detailed examination before the decision regarding their implementation can be taken.

As regards non-Indian born citizens, the Commission has not made any specific recommendation but has suggested that the issue should be examined in-depth through a political process after a national dialogue.

This information was given by the Union Minister of Law and Justice Shri K. Jana Krishnamurthi in a written reply to a question from S/Shri Thawar Chand Gehlot and Danve Raosaheb Patil in the Lok Sabha today.
