BJP AND AAP MLAs congratulated Delhi Assembly Speaker Vijender Gupta for making the House proceedings paperless, though AAP members also questioned the absence of the Question Hour as the Monsoon Session began here on Monday.

The Delhi Assembly also marked a milestone in environmental sustainability and digital governance by becoming the first legislature in the country to run entirely on solar energy.

The Delhi Assembly has implemented National e-Vidhan Application, a flagship project of the Ministry of Parliamentary Affairs designed to create a paperless legislative environment across India.

Many legislators, including Leader of Opposition Atishi, congratulated Gupta on the twin initiatives. The Delhi Assembly also congratulated the Indian cricket team for winning the fifth and final Oval Test against England and levelling the five-match series 2-2.
