Legislative Timeline – Lifecycle of an Act


Change is the only constant and there’s no better example of this than Indian laws. Our laws are constantly evolving and hence have multiple amendments. In fact, some Acts have been amended so many times, that keeping a track of all the amendments looks like a mammoth task. And, this is exactly why we are introducing this new feature named Legislative Timeline.

With the help of Legislative Timeline, one can easily checkout all the amendments of a particular Act.
