Engagement with Honorable Members of Parliament
Parliamentarians with research and periodic convenings on pertinent topics. Primarily, the following are the buckets under which Swaniti supports the Hon’ble Parliamentarians:
- Research
- Expert briefings
- Sectoral Policy Insights
- Legislative Support
The team provides customised research to Hon’ble Members of Parliament (MPs) based on their requirements. These may be on topics pertaining to policy issues, world affairs, Government schemes, and legislative interventions, among others.
Further, Swaniti also provides secretariat support to independent issue-based groups of Hon’ble Parliamentarians, which are The Parliamentarians’ Group for Children (PGC) and The Parliamentarians’ Group for Clean Air (PGCA). The core pillars of such support are; research, convenings, and facilitating the exchange of best practices. These independent groups of Hon’ble Members of Parliament (MPs) convene at frequent intervals to reflect upon related policy issues.
