Government
to table Land Acquisition Bill.
The
government is expected to table the Land Acquisition, Rehabilitation
and Resettlement Bill, 2011 and National Food Security Bill in the Lok
Sabha on Tuesday. But even even before the two landmark bills are tabled
in Parliament, there has been some controversy too.
Gujarat
Chief Minister Narendra Modi has written to Prime Minister Manmohan
Singh opposing the Food Security Bill. Modi has claimed that state
governments are not being given a say in determining 'the eligibility
criteria' and has asked him to call a meeting of chief ministers on the
bill.
However,
Congress General Secretary Digvijaya Singh has taken a dig at Modi for
overstepping Leader of Opposition in the Lok Sabha Sushma Swaraj.
