Repeal of anti-discriminatory laws. Please note: this has been proposed but not yet active
A Law Commission report in 2015 proposed composite legislation entitled “Eliminating Discrimination Against Persons Affected by Leprosy” (EDPAL) to eliminate discriminatory laws and implement anti-stigma provisions. Although some laws were repealed or amended, more than 100 remain on the statute books. The report is under review by the government.
