Are the People of India getting the benefit of the Library Legislation?

[Dr. N K Pachauri]

 

Today, 18 Indian states have been passed Library Legislation in their states. In these states the conditions of public Libraries are as usual as earlier. There is no change in the strategy of Government towards the Public Libraries. This bill is also similar to other bills, passed and put into the Red Tapism.The Library Science trend professionals are not getting the employment and the chain of Libraries (State, District, Taluka,  and Village) could not be developed till now. So please share your views that, are the people of  India getting the benefit of the Library Legislation?

Dear Dr N K Pachauri

The major role of library legislation enables the formation of a public library system to provide library services to various groups in different parts of our nation, with a well organized internal structure. It legally authorized the cities and towns under its control to establish libraries and also made provision to levey separate tex for funding the libraries.Ligislations are comprehensive which cover all types of libraries like city, town, village,distt, regional or school distt libraries.

Unfortunately,at present time govt of the states are looking failure to follow the rules and regulation of the library legislations. My views for that central govt. make common policy for proper implementation of library legislation of every states,for that pupils can get benefit.
