Informing this, Cabinet Minister and chairperson of the committee, Ampareen Lyngdoh said that there were divergent views with few suggesting formation of an expert committee consisting of experts with legal, constitutional and economical background.

She said that few pitched for maintaining status quo but everything was a verbal representation not with legal backing and so the political parties have been asked to get back and justify why delete and include this word and that.
