Will bring promotion quota bill in budget session: Shinde

By IANS,

New Delhi : Union Home Minister Sushilkumar Shinde Thursday said the government will bring the bill for reservation in job promotions to dalits and tribals in the budget session of parliament scheduled in February 2013.

“We will bring the bill in the next session,” Shinde told reporters after the Lok Sabha was adjourned sine die.

The bill could not be passed as the Samajwadi Party (SP), which is firmly opposed to the legislation, did not allow the house to run.

Shinde, who is also leader of the house,said he was talking to the SP.

“There is a lot of time left before the next session,” he said.

The bill has already been passed by the Rajya Sabha.
