New Delhi: Union home minister Amit Shah will introduce the Criminal Procedure (Identification) Bill for preservation of records for identification and investigation in Lok Sabha on Monday.
The proposed law seeks to repeal the Identification of Prisoners Act, 1920.
It proposes to allow police collect finger impressions, palm prints impressions, footprint impressions, photographs, iris and retina scans, physical and biological samples, their analysis, behavioural attributes including signatures, handwriting, etc.
Union minister Arjun Munda is scheduled to introduce the Constitution (Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes) Orders (Second Amendment) Bill in the lower House. The bill seeks to amend the Scheduled Caste and Scheduled Tribes (ST) list of Uttar Pradesh. It was scheduled to be tabled during the first half of the Budget Session but was postponed in view of elections in the state.
Munda will also move the Constitution (Scheduled Tribes) Order (Amendment) Bill to amend the Constitution (Scheduled Tribes) Order, 1950, for inclusion of certain communities on Tripura’s ST list.
