Digvijay Singh today said his government would table a bill
providing enhanced reservation to other backward classes in
the monsoon session of the state assembly.
"Government has sought the opinion of advocate general on
whether it is possible to implement the decision by
promulgating an act or not", he told reporters at the airport
here.
Commenting on non-disbursement of grains under Public
Distribution System (PDS) for people above poverty line (APL),
Singh, reacting to a recent reported remark by Prime Minister
Atal Bihari Vajpayee, said grains meant for APL persons were
costlier as compared to the open market rates.
Singh claimed during his tenure targets set by the
planning commission for various schemes were achieved at the
rate of 90-100 per cent.
