“There should be a debate on the action report of the Kelkar committee, which has been appointed to find out the regional imbalance of development,” he said.
“This session will be held in the backward Vidarbha region and hence this debate is needed. There was a debate on (Vijay) Kelkar committee report during the winter session in 2014 in Nagpur,” he added.
Responding to Munde’s demand, Bapat said the BAC will meet once again on December 20 and the final decision on the extension of the session will be taken.
