perhaps that's what "propose" means?

Yes.

The comment I was replying to speculated that the disagreement was between legislature as a whole and the finance ministry.

My comment pointed out that the disagreement could be internal to the legislature itself.

That's a misreading of my comment. I was just pointing out the fact that the minister of finance expressed opposition to this does not make the story "fake news"

I think I did a poor job of stating my understanding of your comment.

I was pointing out that the proposal of a bill does not mean it will get passed nor that the majority of the legislature supports it. This is similar to how you were pointing out that the finance minister disagreeing with the bill doesn't mean the Indian government is fully against it.

Gotcha. Agreed!
