Some parties have been demanding that the committee be scrapped, because it had served no purpose till now and that the BJP government at the centre had itself lost interest in the ‘Right to Fair Compensation and Transparency in Land Acquisition, Rehabilitation and Resettlement (Amendment) Bill, 2015’. BJP Lok Sabha member Ganesh Singh was appointed chairperson of the committee in July 2016, after his predecessor SS Ahluwalia was made a minister.
