Bill: End Religious Harassment 2
Details
Submitted by[?]: Geraja Janata Parishad
Status[?]: passed
Votes: This is an ordinary bill. It requires more yes votes than no votes. This bill will not pass any sooner than the deadline.
Voting deadline: August 3784
Description[?]:
| To follow up on the existing proposals to strengthen religious rights. Food sales regulation is to be devolved, again to ensure food offerings by Geraja people are not criminalised. We also wish to take powers from central policing and DNA databases which have been used as tools to ban religion and monitor the religious. To further protect religion we seek to make blasphemy against the Geraja faith, and all other faiths, a criminal offence. No more will we be mocked and insulted. Finally many of our impoverished regions require child labour and the GJP has consistently argued to soften restrictions against children participating in the economy. |
