The first session of the new Delhi Assembly will begin on February 24, with the Comptroller and Auditor General (CAG) reports to be tabled on February 25, Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) leader and speaker nominee Vijender Gupta said on Friday.
NEW DELHI:
On the first day of the assembly session, all 70 newly elected MLAs will take the oath of office, and Gandhi Nagar MLA Arvinder Singh Lovely will serve as the pro-tem Speaker to oversee the election of the Speaker.
The first session will run for three days - February 24, 25, and 27 - skipping February 26 due to Maha Shivratri.
Gupta told HT that the new government's top priority is to present 14 pending CAG reports from 2017-18 to 2021-22, which the AAP government had failed to table.
