This increases diplomatic efficiency and mutual understanding among nations.

Lawmakers have worked continuously to meet the changing needs of the society, made laws that protect rights, promote justice and encourage economic development, he noted. He said that this increased confidence underlines a healthy democracy. He described the gender equality embodied in these laws as the basis of the country's system and the basic concept of the Constitution and observed that this feature inspires and guides the world. Expressing the view that Indian laws always reflect the country’s international commitments, Shri Birla said that India has always respected international laws and has been a strong votary of human rights. This commitment of India ensures that laws are made to uphold the dignity, liberty and equality of every citizen, he said. From gender equality, environmental protection to social welfare and progressive policies on anti-discrimination, Indian laws serve as an instrument of empowerment. Referring to India’s robust arbitration system, Shri Birla said that arbitration is India’s heritage which has been followed and upheld by people since ancient times.
