"As far as JPC is concerned, our government is ready for all possible approaches," he told reporters when asked about the standoff with the opposition over the JPC issue that had washed out virtually the entire winter session of Parliament. Singh said the government wanted Parliament to function.

"We want Parliament should function and all problems can be debated in Parliament. We are not afraid of any subject being brought up for discussion. Parliament is the forum for discussion," the Prime Minister said.
