However, JC Madhuswamy’s law minister refused the claim that the government was not serious about the bill or was under pressure to quit the tabling.
“While I admit that it spends time, we haven’t taken it from the table.
We are serious about anti-conversion law,” Madhuswamy said.

After the committee’s recommendation, it will be discussed with the Department of Law, Home and Finance before being considered suitable to be submitted at home.
Secretary of the Legislative Council Kr Mahalakshmi said the committee was between the bill now and will decide when to be submitted.
