Winter Session Is Likely To Get Delayed This Year
The commencement of the Winter Session of the State Legislature, initially scheduled for December 7, is likely to face a postponement. Insider information suggests that the session might now kick off on Monday, December 11. A conclusive decision on this matter is anticipated during the Business Advisory Committee (BAC) meeting scheduled for November 28.
Although a 10-day program starting from December 7 was announced, the specific agenda for the upcoming days was expected to be finalized by the BAC. Typically, the session begins on a Monday, as conveyed by sources.
Traditionally, the initial day of the session, which falls on December 7, involves no official business. Instead, it serves as a platform for exchanging congratulatory messages and paying tributes to members who have recently passed away. Consequently, substantive business activities are expected to commence on December 8, a Friday.
December 9 and 10 are slated as holidays. Some members have raised questions about the rationale behind commencing the session on December 7. Additionally, it is noteworthy that Rahul Narvekar, the Speaker of the Assembly, will be presiding over the matter of the disqualification of Shiv Sena MLAs during the session.
