Politicians should not impede progress For the first time, both
the ruling party and the BJP are on the same wavelength on an

assertion in this respect shows that opposition on trivial grounds
by not-so prominent sections from regional parties will not be
entertained. It is better if the Bill is passed without any
dilution.
