Parliament Sees Increasing Number of Bills Passed Within Same Session
Data from the 18th Lok Sabha reveals an increasing trend of bills being introduced and passed within the same parliamentary session. Analysis shows that over half of the 64 bills introduced so far were passed in their session of introduction, with this pace accelerating notably in recent sessions. While some bills receive extended debate, many are passed after brief discussions, with the median debate time decreasing from nearly six hours in 2024 to under two and a half hours in 2026. This trend reflects a shift toward faster legislative processes in both Houses.
