Why not a National Level Library Legislation instead of State Level?

[Dr. Tarvinder Singh Handa]

Passing a Library Legislation in the interest of public libraries is the necessity of hour. But why should'nt we strengthen/pass a National Level Legislation which would cover all the states of the country. I think this would better leverage the sate of public libraries more effectively and efficiently than any state level library legislation. This would further create uniformity as funding would be done from a single body to the libraries of all states and equal laws would be followed nation-wide. Please give your valuable views in this regard.

Dear  Friend is very good.But  Implementation   of Library  Legislation is  State  Policy.Instead of this ,the center should follow the  guidelines laid by NKC.And also  Center  should insists   States to enact Library Legislation.If  you  go through the Library  Legislation of the ,who already  enacted   there is no uniformity this Should be  rectified first.Then it will become uniformity

Murthy sir has given good views.

Dear Sir...You are absolutely right. But who is gonna persuade the Centre to press the States in passing out Public Library Legislation. The thing is........ who is going to bell the cat??
