THE DATA REVEALS A LONG-TERM DECLINE IN LEGISLATIVE ENGAGEMENT
NEW DELHI: Indian state legislatures enacted over 500 Bills in the year 2024 while examining total Budgets of over Rs 58 lakh crore, reports the fifth annual 'Review of State Laws' done by PRS Legislative Research. The report, examining 31 state legislatures, highlighted ongoing issues regarding lesser legislative discussion and a continued slide in the number of days Assemblies sit each year.
State legislatures, in 2024, convened for a combined average of 20 days, with each session of about five hours. Odisha had the maximum number of sitting days at 42, followed by Kerala (38) and West Bengal (25). Jammu and Kashmir had the least, whereas bigger states such as Uttar Pradesh and Madhya Pradesh only met for 16 days. Debates on state budgets—a fundamental legislative duty—averaged a mere seven days per legislature.
The data reveals a long-term decline in legislative engagement.
