Insurance Bill hangs fire as govt fails to end deadlock
The Modi government could not table the controversial Insurance Bill in the Rajya Sabha on Monday after an all-party meeting failed to break the impasse in the face of Opposition’s demand to send it to a Select Committee.
Nine parties, including the Congress and the Left, are demanding that the Bill be first referred to a Select Committee.
Analysts have termed the Congress' move as curious as the party was the proponent of the Bill. It amounted to a role reversal as the BJP was reluctant to support the Bill in the UPA regime.
