LBA okayed by Indian parliamentary committee
An Indian parliamentary body has okayed the India-Bangladesh land boundary agreement bill.
The decision came at a meeting of the Indian Parliamentary Standing Committee on External Affairs Ministry yesterday, reports BBC Bangla Service.
The committee advised the central government to place the bill at the parliament as soon as possible.
Quoting committee members, BBC Bangla Service reported that the bill might be passed during the current winter session of the Indian parliament.
The bill was sent to the committee for approval after it was placed before the Rajya Sabha, the upper house of the Indian parliament, last year.
Committee Chief and Congress lawmaker Shashi Tharoor had convened yesterday's meeting.
