Delhi Assembly Speaker Vijender Gupta will visit Odisha on a three-day study tour from April 15 to April 17 to assess and learn from the implementation of the National e-Vidhan application in the Odisha Assembly, which has recently transitioned to a fully paperless system.
Speaker Gupta will be accompanied by the Deputy Speaker Mohan Singh Bisht, senior officials of the Delhi Assembly and other key personnel associated with the NeVA project. The objective of the tour is to study best practices, technological frameworks, and operational models adopted by Odisha in implementing NeVA effectively.
During the last Budget session, the Speaker had announced that the Delhi Assembly would become paperless within 100 days. In alignment with this commitment, the Ministry of Parliamentary Affairs is expected to release necessary funds to support the implementation of NeVA in Delhi.
The Speaker had expressed hope that this tour will be instrumental in accelerating Delhi Assembly’s digital transformation, making it a modern and transparent legislative body.
On April 16, the delegation will participate in meetings with the Committee on NeVA and will also meet the Speaker of the Odisha Legislative Assembly. The final day of the tour will be dedicated to wrap-up meetings and further discussions with stakeholders involved in the NeVA implementation. The Delhi Legislative Assembly has announced to adopt a transparent, tech-enabled, and citizen-centric approach to legislative functioning through the swift implementation of NeVA.
