What is the big idea?
Welcome to Sansad the Policy Parliament, where
we provide you with a unique opportunity to draft
India's first model Digital Competition Act.
The Act will govern India's digital market space

landscape.
The Ministry of Corporate Affairs appointed
Committee on Digital Competition Law (CDCL)
started consultations to draft the Bill in March
2023. To support this effort, we invite teams to
Sansad '23 to draft a model Bill which will be
tabled before relevant officials before the
Parliament's Monsoon Session.
