This move also addresses the demands of two allies, the Telugu Desam Party and LJP, who had advocated for the bill to be sent to the committee. Currently, the bill remains stalled for a few months. In today's debate, various aspects of the bill are being examined both for and against. While the opposition has voiced opposition, BJP ally JDU in the NDA has supported it. JDU MP and Union Minister Lalan Singh has also backed the bill and criticised the opposition.
