Whistleblowers Protection Act 2011
to keep issues of national security
out of its purview was introduced in
the Lok Sabha today.
The introduction of the
Whistleblowers Protection
(Amendment) Bill 2015 came close
on the heels of the Opposition
attacking the government for not
notifying the bill despite it getting
the President's assent in May 2014.

NEW DELHI: RJD and JD(U) may not
contest this year's Bihar elections as
one entity and on one symbol in
what is being seen as a setback for
their efforts to check BJP in the
state.
Sources said the merger of RJD and
JD(U) as part of a larger project to
collapse all Janata splinters into a
Parivar will remain incomplete
because of "technical issues". A day
after SP leader Ramgopal Yadav said
that reunion of Janata outfits could
not happen before the Bihar contest,
RJD MP Prem Gupta also said the
process of knocking the six parties
into one has to be put on hold
because of "technical issues".
