We had no information about this,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>Anand Grover of the NGO Lawyers\u2019 Collective said: \u201cWe are really disappointed by the constant delay on the part of the government in bringing this bill to parliament. I hope the bill is brought at the earliest.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>After being finalised by the health ministry in August 2006, the bill was submitted to the law ministry in September 2007.<\/p>\n<p>The bill was drafted after nationwide consultations with various stakeholders, people living with HIV, communities at risk of HIV, healthcare workers, children\u2019s organisations and women\u2019s groups.<\/p>\n<p>The bill provides redressal against discrimination in the private sector.<\/p>\n<p>It also ensures the informed consent of the person should be taken before testing for HIV treatment or research. Although the government provides first line treatment free of cost, availability of second line is limited.<\/p>\n<p>The bill makes it the responsibility of the government to provide complete treatment free of cost.
