New Delhi: The Union government and Opposition may be heading for yet another showdown on the subject of key appointments. NDTV has learnt that the BJP is planning to formally oppose -- in the form of moving a dissent note - a proposal to appoint National Investigation Agency (NIA) director SC Sinha as a member of the National Human Rights Commission (NHRC).
Leader of the Opposition Sushma Swaraj is said to have made her party's objection known when she met with Prime Minister Manmohan Singh and Home Minister Sushil Kumar Shinde on Friday evening.
This is the second time there is opposition to the government's proposal for this appointment. The government had initially considered former CBI director AP Singh for the post, but the BJP had shot down that suggestion.
