New Delhi, Feb 27 (IANS) The government intends to give priority to passage of bills replacing six ordinances in the next week of budget session, Parliamentary Affairs M. Venkaiah Naidu said Friday, adding it was willing to consider constructive suggestions concerning the land acquisition ordinance.
Naidu said that the government will not go back on the ordinance but was willing to consider meaningful suggestions.
"There is no going back on the ordinance. If there are constructive suggestions, theyAwill be considered," he said.
Sources said while bills to replace ordinances were slated to be taken up next week, the government has not spelt out which of the six bills will be taken first. They said if the bills are not passed next week, they will be taken in subsequent weeks.
Of the ordinances, the one on land acquisition is the most contentious as several opposition parties are opposed to it and some allies of Bharatiya Janata Party in the National Democratic Alliance have also expressed their reservations.
Considering the opposition, BJP president Amit Shah has also constituted a committee to take suggestions from farmers.
A BJP leader said that there "will not be compromise with the core" of the ordinance though "practical difficulties (in its implementation) will be taken care of".
The government is also holding talks with various political parties on the issue.
The government has brought six ordinances in past two months. These are the coal mines (special provisions) second ordinance, insurance laws amendment ordinance, right to fair compensation and transparency in land acquisition, rehabilitation and resettlement (amendment) ordinance, the citizenship (amendment) ordinance, motor vehicles (amendment) ordinance and mines and mineral (development and regulation) ordinance.
