An indication to this effect was given by Parliamentary Affairs Minister Pawan Kumar Bansal here today.
The move follows reports that the government and BJP have agreed to keep matters related to national security away from controversy, by excluding them from the key anti-graft whistleblowers' protection and Lokpal bills pending in Parliament.
The government is likely to move an official amendment to the whistleblowers' protection bill when it is introduced in Rajya Sabha.
The amendments would make it clear that "no complaint will be entertained in matters involving the national security, sovereignty and integrity of India."
The two sides also appear to be in agreement for extending immunity to the National Security Advisor and PMO officials, proposed for the Prime Minister in the Lokpal Bill, in matters related to foreign relations, internal/external security and atomic energy.
The whistleblowers' protection as well as Lokpal bills were passed by Lok Sabha in the Winter Session last year and are pending in Rajya Sabha. After the whistleblowers' bill's passage in the Upper House, it would travel back to the Lower House in view of the amendments.
Minister of State for Personnel V Narayanasamy has discussed the matter with Leader of the Opposition in Rajya Sabha Arun Jaitley. (More)
