Ranganath Misra Committee report to be placed in Par: PM

New Delhi, Dec 9 (PTI) Prime Minister of India Manmohan
Singh Wednesday said the report of Ranganath Misra Committee,
which went into the issue of reservation for minorities, will
be placed in Indian Parliament during this session.

"We will place the report on the table of the House in
this session," Singh said in the Lower House of Indian
Parliament (Lok Sabha).
His assurance came after Samajwadi Party members led by
Mulayam Singh Yadav and others demanded that the report be
tabled immediately.
The Prime Minister said, "I take note of this matter and
we will place the report on the table of the House."
Opposition members had raised the issue in the Upper
House of Indian Parliament (Rajya Sabha) Tuesday demanding
that the government make public the report which, they said,
was freely available under the RTI Act.
The Ranganath Committee is understood to have recommended
reservation for minorities in employment, higher education and
economic and developmental schemes funded by the government.
