2nd state to pass Jan Vishwas Bill

Business Standard

|

July 23, 2025

Chhattisgarh has become second Indian state to pass the Jan Vishwas Bill that decriminalises British-era laws to improve ease of doing business in the state.

- R Krishna Das

The Bill aims to decriminalise minor technical violations by citizens and business owners. Offences committed under the newly introduced Bill will attract monetary penalties, instead of criminal charges.

Madhya Pradesh had passed a similar legislation in December last year. In 2023, the Union government had passed a Bill decriminalising 183 provisions in 42 Central Acts administered by 19 ministries/departments.
