Headline: “Right to Disconnect” and NEET Exemption Bills Introduced in Lok Sabha
NEW DELHI, December 5, 2025 – A flurry of private members’ bills were introduced in the Lok Sabha today, ranging from employee rights to healthcare and infrastructure development. Among the most notable was the “Right to Disconnect Bill, 2025,” put forth by NCP MP Supriya Sule. This bill seeks to legally mandate the right for employees to disconnect from work-related calls and emails outside of their designated work hours and on holidays. The bill also proposes the creation of an employees’ welfare authority to confer this right.
Congress MP Kadiyam Kavya introduced the ‘Menstrual Benefits Bill, 2024′, seeking to provide for facilities at work for women during menstruation.
Congress MP Manickam Tagore introduced legislation aimed at exempting Tamil Nadu from the National Eligibility cum Entrance Test (NEET) for undergraduate medical admissions. Tagore also proposed bills to establish state-of-the-art sports infrastructure and fire factories in Virudhunagar, Tamil Nadu. DMK MP Kanimozhi Karunanidhi introduced a bill to abolish the death penalty.
While the introduction of these bills signals a vibrant legislative process, it’s important to note that historically, most private members’ bills are withdrawn after the government presents its response. The fate of these proposed laws now rests on further debate and government consideration.
