Hi, I finished CS in 2014 and worked for a few months in a private ltd. company before getting married. During the last 10 years, I was not able to practice or get employed anywhere in the company secretary role.
However, now I want to get back into the workforce and restart my career as a company secretary.

I wanted to know, how do I start? How do I get updated about every old and new rule? Also, are there any newsletters or emailers where I can get weekly updates?
Any kind of guidance would be appreciated.
