An “informal proposal” has been floated for the department of public enterprises (DPE) to come under the jurisdiction of the MCA, Union company affairs minister Salman Khurshid said.
The DPE currently falls under the Ministry of Heavy Industries and Public Enterprises, and is the nodal agency for central public enterprises. He said that much of the work being undertaken by the MCA for the private and public sector enabled it to better coordinate the activities of the DPE.
