The Law Commission in its 257th
Report on May, 2015, titled “ Reforms in Guardianship and Custody Laws in
India” has recommended for amendments in the Guardians and Wards Act, 1890 and
the Hindu Minority and Guardianship Act, 1956. The details of the
recommendation are available on the website of the Law Commission http://www.lawcommissionofindia.cic.in.
Since the subject matter of the said
Report falls under List-III Concurrent List of the Seventh Schedule to the
Constitution, comments/views of the State Governments and Union territory
Administrations are being solicited. Hence, no time frame can be fixed to
implement the said recommendations.
This information was given by Union
Minister of Ministry of Law & Justice, Shri D. V. Sadananda Gowda in a written
reply in Lok Sabha today.
