West Bengal govt to bring two bills to tackle public disorder, attacks on police, public servants

West Bengal is introducing two new bills to combat public disorder, vandalism, and attacks on officials. One bill amends the Public Order Act to broaden its scope, while the other, the Public Safety Control and Anti-Social Activity Bill, aims to comprehensively address public safety threats. These measures, inspired by laws in other states, will empower authorities to recover damages from convicted offenders, potentially through asset seizure.
