A day after Vice-President Jagdeep Dhankhar criticized him for his "part-timers" remark regarding the new criminal laws, Congress leader P Chidambaram stated on Sunday that the drafting of such crucial bills should have been the Law Commission's responsibility rather than a committee with part-time members. Chidambaram highlighted that the Union Home Ministry in May 2020 formed a committee for reforms of criminal laws, which included a chairman, convenor, and members.
