Land bill: Parl panel to seek 4 more days to submit report

August 03, 2015 08:15

The Joint Committee of Parliament examining the land acquisition bill will today seek four more days' time to submit its report.

At a recent meeting of the Committee, it was decided to seek two more days' extension till August 5 to submit its report. But since the panel could not meet for two days following the demise of former President A P J Abdul Kalam, it was decided to seek the extension till August 7.

A motion seeking a fresh extension is part of today's listed business in Lok Sabha.

"That this House do extend time for presentation of the Report of the Joint Committee on the Right to Fair Compensation and Transparency in Land Acquisition, Rehabilitation and Resettlement (Second Amendment) Bill, 2015 up to 7 August, 2015," the motion reads.

The deadline for submission of the report had earlier been extended till August 3.
