The Jan Vishwas (Amendment of Provisions) Bills, passed in 2025, mark a major step in India’s journey towards faith-based governance. These reforms focus on decriminalizing minor offenses and reducing unnecessary imprisonment, replacing them with rationalized penalties and simplified compliance. This shift reflects India’s commitment to creating a more transparent, business-friendly, and citizen-centric legal framework. By cutting down red tape and ensuring ease of doing business, the Jan Vishwas Bill aligns with the government’s vision of making India a global leader in governance reforms. The process began with the Jan Vishwas Act, 2023, which rationalized penalties in over 40 central laws. Building on that foundation, the 2025 amendments expand its scope, taking India another step closer to efficient and trust-driven governance.
