On November 26, the state Cabinet had approved the amendment bill that proposed addition of two provisos to Section 376 of the Indian Penal Code.
After the assembly's nod, the bill will now be forwarded to the Centre for necessary action.
State Minister Ram Pal Singh moved the amendment bill in the assembly, which got the support from all members of the house.
