NEET is termed as the most controversial one.
The ordinance to keep state education boards out of the common medical entrance test for this year is the 21st promulgated by the Narendra Modi government, with the most controversial being the one to amend the land acquisition law.
In its very first Cabinet meeting, the government, which came to power in May, 2014, recommended issuing two ordinance -- one to amend the TRAI Act to allow Nripendra Mishra take over as Principal Secretary to the Prime Minister, and the other to amend the Andhra Pradesh Reorganisation Act for transfer of a cluster of villages for the Polavaram project.
Both the ordinances were issued on May 28, 2014.
Besides the two, the government had issued a total of five ordinances in 2014, including the one to amend the Land Acquisition law of 2013. The ordinance envisaged procuring land for industrial corridors, rural infrastructure, defence and housing.
The ordinance to amend the The Right to Fair Compensation and Transparency in Land Acquisition, Rehabilitation and Resettlement Act passed by the previous UPA government was promulgated and repromulgated on three occasions following which the government gave up the ordinance route and went for a statutory order.
The Bill to amend the land law is pending before a Joint Committee of Parliament.
The other ordinances promulgated in 2014 were the Coal Mines (special provisions) -- issued twice -- the one on Textile Undertakings and another to amend the Insurance laws.
In 2015, a total of 10 ordinances were promulgated, including the one to amend land law which was issued twice on April 3 and May 30 respectively.
The other ordinances issued in 2015 included the one to amend the Citizenship Act to merge Persons of Indian Origin (PIO) and Overseas Citizenship of India (OCI) schemes, by which PIOs will also get life-long Indian visa.
Another ordinance was aimed at amending the Motor Vehicles Act to bring e-carts and e-rickshaws under the ambit of the law.
This year, the ordinance to amend the Enemy Property Act was promulgated twice. It sought to amend a 48-year-old law to guard against claims of succession or transfer of properties left by people who migrated to Pakistan and China after the wars.
In a rare development, the Budget session of Parliament was prorogued on March 29 to enable the government to issue an Ordinance to authorise expenditure beyond April 1 in the Centrally-ruled Uttarakhand in view of the political crisis in the state.
A bill to replace the Uttarakhand Appropriation Ordinance was later passed by Parliament.
