6 साल से क्यों रुका है 125वां संविधान संशोधन | What is 125th constitution amendment Bill

The 125th Constitution Amendment Bill, pending for the last six years, is crucial for developing tribal areas in Assam, Meghalaya, Tripura, and Mizoram. This bill seeks to enhance the Sixth Schedule provisions, ensuring greater autonomy and financial empowerment for tribal councils. However, the central government has failed to demonstrate the political will to pass it in Parliament. The delay has stalled much-needed reforms in these regions' governance, infrastructure, and local administration.
Tribal communities struggle with inadequate resources, limited self-governance, and bureaucratic hurdles. Despite repeated demands from tribal leaders and organizations, the bill remains in limbo, reflecting a lack of commitment to tribal welfare. The delay raises concerns about the government’s approach to constitutional promises for indigenous communities. In this report, we examine the significance of the bill, its impact on tribal areas, and why it has not been prioritized in Parliament despite its urgent necessity.
