Anti-Superstition Legislation

Abstract

After a long and gruelling campaign by ANS for the past eight years to enact a Law against Superstition which harm the citizens, the Maharashtra State Government under the leadership of the new Chief Minister Hon. Sushilkumar Shinde has passed in their Cabinet meeting such a law and sent it to the Central Government for their approval. The antecedents and the efforts that were put into by reformists to achieve such bold act are quite praiseworthy, though we have to go a long way to achieve the desired results. This will be the first law of its kind in India and may be in the world. [MANS].
