Description[?]:
Ministry of Internal Affairs propose this bill as to keep the harmony among various religious communities of Luthori.We aren't scraping the current law right away rather toning down the current Act.Ministry of Foreign Affairs has given go-ahead for the Article 2 of the bill.The government through Ministry of internal Affairs would nominate ministers for religious affairs after mandatory consultation with the religious communities & the appointment is already left to the religious communities themselves,however the govt will serve the vetting process.We believe that the religion is a private matter of each citizen & forcing a mandatory membership of specific religion or any religion will constitute violation of human rights.I recommend this bill to the house. Minister for Internal Affairs, Isabelle McNaughton |
