&lt;div align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt;
The Planning Commission has distanced itself from 
the government&#039;s decision to appoint a committee to reconsider the way 
poverty numbers are estimated, indicating a deep divide between the 
political masters and the technocrats at institution charged with laying
down development agenda for the country.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
On Thursday, Minister for Planning Ashwini Kumar announced a committee 
under C Rangarajan, chairman of prime minister&#039;s economic advisory 
council, to review the widely criticised poverty estimates released 
earlier. The conference was not attended by any of the commission 
members.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Most of the Planning Commission has distanced itself from the review 
even as there has not been any fervent opposition to setting up the 
review committee.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;We are not opposed to a review,&amp;quot; said a member, but there is a feeling 
that the issue was blown out of proportion and any new panel might not 
serve a very productive purpose.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Commission members say that they were not kept in the loop. The idea was
mooted by the minister merely a day after the commission had announced 
the poverty numbers and denied any intension of revising it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The dissonance within the commission is evident by the sequence of 
events. Ashwini Kumar&#039;s approached PM Manmohan Singh directly over the 
issue, sidelining Planning Commission Deputy Chairman Montek S 
Ahluwalia.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;The decision to go for a different committee happened without 
consulting us. We were told later and there were some questions 
regarding the use of another committee,&amp;quot; said another plan panel member.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Most of the people in the new committee have seen merit in the 
Tendulkar report. The commission, at best, wants to stay indifferent to 
it and wait for the observations of the review whenever they come,&amp;quot; the 
member added.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The committee members include PMEAC chairman C Rangarajan; Mahendra Dev,
director of Indira Gandhi Institute of Development Research; K 
Sundaram, former professor with Delhi School of Economics; Mahesh Vyas, 
CEO ,CMIE; and KL Dutta ex- adviser with the planning commission.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
While Rangarajan has said that the new committee will look beyond a 
consumption expenditure based method for calculating poverty, he had in 
2010 praised the work of the Tendulkar committee. &lt;br /&gt;

The Planning Commission has distanced itself from 
the government&#039;s decision to appoint a committee to reconsider the way 
poverty numbers are estimated, indicating a deep divide between the 
political masters and the technocrats at institution charged with laying
down development agenda for the country.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
On Thursday, Minister for Planning Ashwini Kumar announced a committee 
under C Rangarajan, chairman of prime minister&#039;s economic advisory 
council, to review the widely criticised poverty estimates released 
earlier. The conference was not attended by any of the commission 
members.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Most of the Planning Commission has distanced itself from the review 
even as there has not been any fervent opposition to setting up the 
review committee.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;We are not opposed to a review,&amp;quot; said a member, but there is a feeling 
that the issue was blown out of proportion and any new panel might not 
serve a very productive purpose.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Commission members say that they were not kept in the loop. The idea was
mooted by the minister merely a day after the commission had announced 
the poverty numbers and denied any intension of revising it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The dissonance within the commission is evident by the sequence of 
events. Ashwini Kumar&#039;s approached PM Manmohan Singh directly over the 
issue, sidelining Planning Commission Deputy Chairman Montek S 
Ahluwalia.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;The decision to go for a different committee happened without 
consulting us. We were told later and there were some questions 
regarding the use of another committee,&amp;quot; said another plan panel member.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Most of the people in the new committee have seen merit in the 
Tendulkar report. The commission, at best, wants to stay indifferent to 
it and wait for the observations of the review whenever they come,&amp;quot; the 
member added.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The committee members include PMEAC chairman C Rangarajan; Mahendra Dev,
director of Indira Gandhi Institute of Development Research; K 
Sundaram, former professor with Delhi School of Economics; Mahesh Vyas, 
CEO ,CMIE; and KL Dutta ex- adviser with the planning commission.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
While Rangarajan has said that the new committee will look beyond a 
consumption expenditure based method for calculating poverty, he had in 
2010 praised the work of the Tendulkar committee. &lt;br /&gt;

$disp = &#039;&lt;div align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt;The Planning Commission has distanced itself from the government&#039;s decision to appoint a committee to reconsider the way poverty numbers are estimated, indicating a deep divide between the political masters and the technocrats at institution charged with layingdown development agenda for the country.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;On Thursday, Minister for Planning Ashwini Kumar announced a committee under C Rangarajan, chairman of prime minister&#039;s economic advisory council, to review the widely criticised poverty estimates released earlier. The conference was not attended by any of the commission members.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Most of the Planning Commission has distanced itself from the review even as there has not been any fervent opposition to setting up the review committee.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&amp;quot;We are not opposed to a review,&amp;quot; said a member, but there is a feeling that the issue was blown out of proportion and any new panel might not serve a very productive purpose.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Commission members say that they were not kept in the loop. The idea wasmooted by the minister merely a day after the commission had announced the poverty numbers and denied any intension of revising it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The dissonance within the commission is evident by the sequence of events. Ashwini Kumar&#039;s approached PM Manmohan Singh directly over the issue, sidelining Planning Commission Deputy Chairman Montek S Ahluwalia.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&amp;quot;The decision to go for a different committee happened without consulting us. We were told later and there were some questions regarding the use of another committee,&amp;quot; said another plan panel member.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&amp;quot;Most of the people in the new committee have seen merit in the Tendulkar report. The commission, at best, wants to stay indifferent to it and wait for the observations of the review whenever they come,&amp;quot; the member added.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The committee members include PMEAC chairman C Rangarajan; Mahendra Dev,director of Indira Gandhi Institute of Development Research; K Sundaram, former professor with Delhi School of Economics; Mahesh Vyas, CEO ,CMIE; and KL Dutta ex- adviser with the planning commission.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;While Rangarajan has said that the new committee will look beyond a consumption expenditure based method for calculating poverty, he had in 2010 praised the work of the Tendulkar committee. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&#039;

The Planning Commission has distanced itself from 
the government&#039;s decision to appoint a committee to reconsider the way 
poverty numbers are estimated, indicating a deep divide between the 
political masters and the technocrats at institution charged with laying
down development agenda for the country.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
On Thursday, Minister for Planning Ashwini Kumar announced a committee 
under C Rangarajan, chairman of prime minister&#039;s economic advisory 
council, to review the widely criticised poverty estimates released 
earlier. The conference was not attended by any of the commission 
members.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Most of the Planning Commission has distanced itself from the review 
even as there has not been any fervent opposition to setting up the 
review committee.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;We are not opposed to a review,&amp;quot; said a member, but there is a feeling 
that the issue was blown out of proportion and any new panel might not 
serve a very productive purpose.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Commission members say that they were not kept in the loop. The idea was
mooted by the minister merely a day after the commission had announced 
the poverty numbers and denied any intension of revising it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The dissonance within the commission is evident by the sequence of 
events. Ashwini Kumar&#039;s approached PM Manmohan Singh directly over the 
issue, sidelining Planning Commission Deputy Chairman Montek S 
Ahluwalia.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;The decision to go for a different committee happened without 
consulting us. We were told later and there were some questions 
regarding the use of another committee,&amp;quot; said another plan panel member.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Most of the people in the new committee have seen merit in the 
Tendulkar report. The commission, at best, wants to stay indifferent to 
it and wait for the observations of the review whenever they come,&amp;quot; the 
member added.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The committee members include PMEAC chairman C Rangarajan; Mahendra Dev,
director of Indira Gandhi Institute of Development Research; K 
Sundaram, former professor with Delhi School of Economics; Mahesh Vyas, 
CEO ,CMIE; and KL Dutta ex- adviser with the planning commission.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

down development agenda for the country.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
On Thursday, Minister for Planning Ashwini Kumar announced a committee 
under C Rangarajan, chairman of prime minister&#039;s economic advisory 
council, to review the widely criticised poverty estimates released 
earlier. The conference was not attended by any of the commission 
members.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Most of the Planning Commission has distanced itself from the review 
even as there has not been any fervent opposition to setting up the 
review committee.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;We are not opposed to a review,&amp;quot; said a member, but there is a feeling 
that the issue was blown out of proportion and any new panel might not 
serve a very productive purpose.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Commission members say that they were not kept in the loop. The idea was
mooted by the minister merely a day after the commission had announced 
the poverty numbers and denied any intension of revising it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The dissonance within the commission is evident by the sequence of 
events. Ashwini Kumar&#039;s approached PM Manmohan Singh directly over the 
issue, sidelining Planning Commission Deputy Chairman Montek S 
Ahluwalia.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;The decision to go for a different committee happened without 
consulting us. We were told later and there were some questions 
regarding the use of another committee,&amp;quot; said another plan panel member.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Most of the people in the new committee have seen merit in the 
Tendulkar report. The commission, at best, wants to stay indifferent to 
it and wait for the observations of the review whenever they come,&amp;quot; the 
member added.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The committee members include PMEAC chairman C Rangarajan; Mahendra Dev,
director of Indira Gandhi Institute of Development Research; K 
Sundaram, former professor with Delhi School of Economics; Mahesh Vyas, 
CEO ,CMIE; and KL Dutta ex- adviser with the planning commission.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
While Rangarajan has said that the new committee will look beyond a 
consumption expenditure based method for calculating poverty, he had in 
2010 praised the work of the Tendulkar committee. &lt;br /&gt;

Plan panel stays away from new team set up to redo poverty math-Devika Banerji

The Planning Commission has distanced itself from the government's decision to appoint a committee to reconsider the way poverty numbers are estimated, indicating a deep divide between the political masters and the technocrats at institution charged with layingdown development agenda for the country. On Thursday, Minister for Planning Ashwini Kumar announced a committee under C Rangarajan, chairman of prime minister's economic advisory council, to review the widely criticised poverty estimates released earlier. The conference was not attended by any of the commission members. Most of the Planning Commission has distanced itself from the review even as there has not been any fervent opposition to setting up the review committee. "We are not opposed to a review," said a member, but there is a feeling that the issue was blown out of proportion and any new panel might not serve a very productive purpose." Commission members say that they were not kept in the loop. The idea wasmooted by the minister merely a day after the commission had announced the poverty numbers and denied any intension of revising it. The dissonance within the commission is evident by the sequence of events. Ashwini Kumar's approached PM Manmohan Singh directly over the issue, sidelining Planning Commission Deputy Chairman Montek S Ahluwalia. "The decision to go for a different committee happened without consulting us. We were told later and there were some questions regarding the use of another committee," said another plan panel member. "Most of the people in the new committee have seen merit in the Tendulkar report. The commission, at best, wants to stay indifferent to it and wait for the observations of the review whenever they come," the member added. The committee members include PMEAC chairman C Rangarajan; Mahendra Dev,director of Indira Gandhi Institute of Development Research; K Sundaram, former professor with Delhi School of Economics; Mahesh Vyas, CEO ,CMIE; and KL Dutta ex- adviser with the planning commission. While Rangarajan has said that the new committee will look beyond a consumption expenditure based method for calculating poverty, he had in 2010 praised the work of the Tendulkar committee.
