This is just a bill that is yet to be passed. It is just a proposal, and unless it is passed in Lok Sabha, it cannot come into effect. Do you have a copy of the official gazette? If yes, then can you please attach it.

I don't know why there is so much conversation on the issue. It is a bill only and is still to be passed by the government, though the same has been posted by the threader itself that it is only a proposal.
