Our previous article on the same topic

Recently Lok Sabha has passed The Jallianwala Bagh National Memorial (Amendment) Bill, 2019. It amends the Jallianwala Bagh National Memorial Act, 1951.  

Key highlights about the act and the changes proposed to it are:

  • The Act provides for the erection of a National Memorial in memory of those killed or wounded on April 13, 1919, in Jallianwala Bagh, Amritsar.  In addition, it creates a Trust to manage the National Memorial.
  • Composition of Trustees: Under the 1951 Act, the Trustees of the Memorial include: 
  1. The Prime Minister as Chairperson
  2. President of the Indian National Congress
  3. Minister-in-charge of Culture
  4. Leader of Opposition in the Lok Sabha
  5. Governor of Punjab
  6. Chief Minister of Punjab, and
  7. Three eminent persons nominated by the central government.  
  • The Bill amends this provision to remove the President of the Indian National Congress as a Trustee.  Further, it clarifies that when there is no Leader of Opposition in Lok Sabha, then the leader of the single largest opposition party will be the Trustee.
  • The Act provides that the three trustees nominated by the central government will be trustees for a period of five years and will be eligible for renomination. The Bill allows the central government to terminate the term of a nominated trustee before the expiry of the period of his term without assigning any reason.
