Chief Minister Hemant Soren on Monday assured the State Assembly that a Cabinet sub-committee would look into the contentious issue of defining domicile status of the State residents and would submit its report within three months.
Answering a barrage of questions from Opposition members on the second day of the Winter Session, Hemant put up a brave face and said, "This Government believes in fulfilling what it has promised. A Cabinet sub-committee to formulate domicile policy would be in place and its report would be placed before the House in three-month time."
The Chief Minister had constituted the sub-committee on the eve of the Winter Session, which comprised Finance Minister Rajendra Singh, Industries Minister Champai Soren and Tourism Minister Suresh Paswan. Incidentally, the previous Arjun Munda Government had also formed a panel that comprised Hemant Soren, besides Baidyanath Ram and Sudesh Mahto
