The bill is an attempt to free the rebel side only, he said, it has relegated the conflict survivors to the back-burner.
"The conflict had not only involved the rebel side and state side. General public who did not associate themselves with either side were the most affected victims. But, they had come across the biggest loss and damage", Lingden added.
However, the present bill has not inserted any measures to dispense justice to the most-affected people, he commented.
On another note, RPP Chair Lingden ruled out the need of three tiers of the governments in the name of federalism. If the local level is empowered and provinces scrapped, it would reduce financial burden and also bail the country out of economic crisis, he asserted.
