Some major concerns regarding the constitution have been citizenship issues, right to freedom, right to justice, women's rights, sexual and reproductive rights, rights of the indigenous people, and the removal of Hindu state among the others. CA secretariat says that though they are supposed to keep a record of each and every suggestion, CA holds the rights to decide what to do with these propositions.
The subcommittee on Wednesday sought five days to categorize, process, analyze the data and prepare a report, setting a deadline for sometime next week, after a meeting with the CA chairman, Subas Nembang.
After that, the CA's Constitutional Political Dialogue and Consensus Committee (CPDCC) will hold discussions on the report at the committee, which would be represented mostly by top leaders of all the political parties. After discussion at the CDPDCC, the report will be forwarded to the Constitution Drafting Committee that will improve the draft based on the inputs.
The 73-member committee will then present the updated draft constitution to the CA full House and all the 601 CA members will be allowed to register amendments.
Finally, the draft will have to be endorsed by two-thirds majority of the 601-member CA for promulgation.
Waiting for Godot!
