Jayant Sinha to bring Competition (Amendment) Bill on March 17

The list of private members' business on the Lok Sabha's website mentions this Bill to be introduced on March 17.

Sinha was head of the parliamentary panel on the proposed Competition Amendment Bill. The committee had made a slew of suggestions for the overhaul of the Bill, most of which were rejected by the government.

While it is not unusual for a private member Bill to be introduced by those belonging to the ruling party, a Bill moved by the head of the standing committee to push its recommendations is not ordinarily done.
