New Delhi: The Central government indicated that it’s
pretty open to all the possible options on the issue of the land bill. In its
deliberation the spokesmen from the government bodies also hinted that they can
only move forward after the joint committee of the Parliament submits its
report after looking in to the matter. The sources from the government added
that they won’t object if the report comes with a due consensus of the parties
involved.
The Joint committee
of the Parliament would resume only after the Bihar Assembly Elections. When
asked about it Union Rural development Minister Chaudhury Birender Singh said
that he will only be able to confirm after joint committee looks in to the
contentious legislation.
On issues of whether
the land Bill would be forced to lapse, the minister said he can only say after
the joint committee submits its report. On this he reiterated that the report
being good and unanimous they can proceed further. Thus all he hinted is to wait
for the report to be submitted. On this he also said that the parliamentary
panel which is headed by the BJP MP, S S Ahluwalia is expected to submit the
report by the beginning of the next session. In the month of August the
ordinances bringing the key changes in the UPA legislation like removing the provisions
for consent clause and others like the Social Impact Assessment was allowed to
lapse. The Union Minister said that the centre has agreed to the request of the
Chief Ministers to enact land requisition laws in the meeting conducted with
them.

Mr. Sing while talking to reporters after
releasing the training manuals for MGNREGA and the study of Impact Assessment
of PMGSY Roads which was carried out in conjunction with the International
labour Organization (ILO).
The BJP led central government faced
stiff resistance from the opposition parties, the NDA constituents, farmer’s
organizations and the affiliates of RSS. This led the government not to
promulgate the controversial ordinance as it sought to introduce changes in the
Right to Fair Compensation and Transparency in the act of land Acquisition,
Rehabilitation and resettlement (LARR) Act, 2013 which was brought in by the
previous UPA government.
The enactment of the NDA government had
issued a government directive so that the benefits of the relief, compensation
and rehabilitation provided to the farmers under the UPA land enactment are
extended to the thirteen other acts under which the land is acquired.
In accordance with all this
happening in the country the prime minister Mr. Narendra Modi said in the radio
programme “ Mann Ki Baat” that his government already decided this ordinance to
expire. This means the situation would restore to what it was earlier before
the NDA government took over.
The changes in Land Acquisition bill is definitely for the good of the people of India, and the shouts we are hearing from the opposition party is their duty. It has been listened that the land bill is made in the favor of builders and real estate developer but its not, its for the infrastructural development of the country.
