The government proposed committee, headed by C Rangarajan, to resolve inter-ministerial differences over the proposal to reschedule premium payments for a clutch of highway projects will have five members, say sources.
The five member-panel includes Planning Commission secretary Sindhushree Khullar, road ministry secretary Vijay Chhibber, NHAI chairman RP Singh, expenditure secretary RS Gujral and PM’s economic advisory council secretary Alok Sheel.
The creation of the panel was a cabinet decision on October 8. It is expected to come out with recommendations in four weeks. The proposal for premium rescheduling of a clutch of beleaguered highway projects will still have to go through another round of tough negotiations.
