Narcotics act amendment bill in Rajya Sabha for passage

After being passed by the People’s Court on Monday, the Narcotics and Psychotropic Substances (Amendment) Bill of 2021 will be reviewed and passed in Rajya Sabha on Wednesday. It aims to replace the 2021 Narcotics and Psychotropic Substances (Amendment) Regulations.

Treasury Secretary Nirmala Sitalaman may introduce the bill in the second half of the proceedings of the House of Lords.

According to the PRS legislative study, this bill amended the Narcotics and Psychotropic Substances Act of 1985 to correct drafting errors. The bill regulates certain operations (such as manufacturing, transportation, and consumption) related to narcotic drugs and psychotropic substances.

The law was amended in 2014, and the number of the definition clauses for this type of illegal activity was revised. However, the penalties for funding these illegal activities have not been revised, and the earlier article numbers continue to be cited, making the penalties impossible to implement. The bill amended the penalty section to change the reference to the new clause number. Finance Minister Nirmala Sitalaman told Parliament that the retrospective clause in the bill is not “substantial” in nature.

On Wednesday, the Minister of Finance will introduce the Appropriations for 2021 (No. 5) bill in the House of Commons. The purpose of the bill is to authorize the payment and allocation of certain additional funds from the India Joint Fund for services in the 2021-2022 fiscal year. The bill was originally scheduled to be reviewed on Tuesday.

Member of Parliament (MP) Adhir Ranjan Chowdhury and Member of Trinamool Congress (TMC) Saugata Roy will seek to discuss the price increase of Lok Sabha.

“Fortunately, injuries didn’t affect the spine.” Saif Ali Khan receives 10 stitches for a serious stab wound sustained during the home burglary.

Actor Saif Ali Khan’s house in Bandra, Mumbai was a target for an attempted robbery during the early hours of Thursday morning. The actor was stabbed during the incident and had to urgently be taken to Lilavati hospital and undergo surgery. Now, we have received more updates on it.

We have learnt from sources at the hospital that one of the injuries was quite deep and the actor has received 10 stitches for this stab. The source says, “Fortunately, it has not affected the spine. He was very lucky that the stabs have not affected any of his vital organs. It appears to have been attacked by a knife and he was actually thwarting a robbery attempt.”

The source adds, “Of the six injuries that Saif has suffered, two injuries are deep, two are mid and two are superficial.”

Coincidentally, at the reported time of the robbery, Saif’s wife Kareena Kapoor Khan has put up an Insta story of a girls night in with her friends Sonam Kapoor and Rhea Kapoor, and sister Karisma Kapoor. It had led to speculations that she was probably not at home during the time of burglary. However her team has released a statement saying, “All members of the household were present at home at the time of the unfortunate incident.”

As per recent reports, three suspects have been detained by the Bandra Police in the case.
