The National Assembly on Thursday endorsed the bill related to transitional justice without any revision.
 
The Upper House unanimously supported the motion put forward by Minister for Law, Justice and Parliamentary Affairs, Ajay Kumar Chaurasiya to endorse the bill to amend the Disappearances Enquiry, Truth and Reconciliation Commission Act.
