Rules for convening Assembly session must be followed, Bidhuri tells L-G

Published on: 

BJP leader and Leader of Opposition in Delhi Assembly Ramvir Singh Bidhuri on Thursday told Lieutenant-Governor Vinai Kumar Saxena that rules should be followed for convening the session of the Assembly and if the AAP does not follow the rules, then the Assembly should be dissolved.

The BJP leader demanded that the one-day special session called by the Government on Friday should be stopped and instead the Monsoon Session of the Assembly should be called for at least five days.

 He further accused the AAP of making the Assembly an arena of politics and keeping all rules aside. He said the main agenda of the AAP Government will be Modi-bashing or Centre-bashing and they would not discuss the liquor policy “scam.”

“In the past, whenever the Delhi Assembly session was convened, it ended with Modi Government bashing. Till date, Kejriwal is busy doing drama but he has not answered any query raised by the BJP,” said Bidhuri. Earlier, Bihduri held a meeting with BJP MLAs ahead of the session to discuss the strategy in the House. The meeting was attended by all BJP MLAs including Mohan Singh Bisht, Vijender Gupta, Omprakash Sharma, Jitendra Mahajan among others.

Bidhuri said the one-day session of the Delhi Assembly has been called by breaking rules. “There have been Monsoon Sessions of all the Legislative Assemblies including the Parliament, but the Monsoon Session of the Delhi Legislative Assembly was not called.

The Kejriwal Government does not want to talk about the issues of the people, nor does it want to answer the questions of the people,” he said.

“Whenever the AAP needs to talk on any subject of its choice, it calls a day-long session of the Assembly. Surprisingly, neither questions nor answers are asked in the session and even members are allowed to raise short-duration discussions,” said Bidhuri. 

“Before convening the session, 15 days’ notice should be given, and the members should be allowed to express their views. If AAP is determined to kill democracy like this, then Delhi Assembly should be dissolved,” Bidhuri added.
