Manish Gupta asks Question regarding direction to tackle racial attacks and hate crimes

FULL TRANSCRIPT
The Government of India had set up Bezbaruah Committee in 2014. The Committee has suggested amendment of Sections 153 and 509 and according to that it is expected that the Government of India will consult the State Governments as it is in the Concurrent List in the 7Th Schedule of the Indian Constitution.
We have observed that the progress in such consultations, the intention to make amendments, is taking a lot of time. What we need is concerted action against those people who disrupt communal harmony and racial tension.
Is there any other plan or any other scheme to buttress this Act of the Central Government so that this kind of activity is reduced to a great extent?
