By The Assam Tribune

NEW DELHI, Feb 27 (PTI) - The process of formation of the JPC for probing the 2G spectrum allocation scam will be completed on Tuesday when Prime Minister Manmohan Singh moves a motion in the Rajya Sabha, which is expected to approve it.

Singh, who is the Leader of the Rajya Sabha, will seek the approval of the Upper House for the motion for setting up the 30-member Joint Parliamentary Committee.

The motion will also have the names of ten members from the Rajya Sabha for the JPC which already has 20 members from the Lok Sabha.

While BJP leaders Ravi Shankar Prasad and S S Ahluwalia have already been nominated by the party, the names of Tiruchi Siva (DMK), S C Mishra (BSP), Abhishek Singhvi and Jayanthi Natarajan (both Congress) and Sitaram Yechury (CPI-M) are doing the rounds.
