After taking everyone’s opinion, we will examine the Bill in an unbiased manner and with an open mind…The effort will be to see that we all arrive at a consensus. Because all MPs who are members of this Committee are eminent personalities. I believe that in the national interest, we will work together and try to build a consensus,” he said
