Union Minister Jairam Ramesh, who plays key role in processing the T-bill as a member of GoM, speaking to media at New Delhi said “The draft bill is in accordance with constitution and doesn’t violates any clause of it. If, CM Kiran Kumar Reddy says the bill is against constitution, I can’t say anything as I am not a legal expert. However, GoM will hold a meeting once the T-bill is returned to Delhi and discuss about the objections raised by CM and others. CM Kiran’s question about the bill, whether it is a bill or draft bill is also not correct. Bill or draft bill both are same and there is no difference between them. Actually, the bill is sent to state assembly only to collect its views and not for any approval. Earlier, Supreme Court also gave ruling that Centre has rights to divide a state under Article 3 of the constitution. We will definitely present the bill in the upcoming Parliament sessions, Let us see, whether BJP will support the bill or not.”

If, Jairam Ramesh is sure that there is no difference between a draft bill and original bill, then UPA government has to submit the same bill into Parliament without any changes. If so, when the State Assembly itself has found 9000+ flaws in it, then shall Parliament afford to ignore them all and pass it for the sake of Congress party?
