Srinagar, Sep 8: The upcoming 10‑day autumn session of the Jammu & Kashmir Legislative Assembly will be spread over seven sittings, the provisional calendar issued by the Assembly Secretariat on Tuesday revealed.
According to the calendar released by the Assembly secretariat, September 21 has been earmarked for obituary references and Government business.
The Assembly Secretariat’s decision to conduct Government business on the same day that obituary references are read out for former legislators who passed away since the last session marks a departure from past practice. Traditionally, the House was adjourned for the day after obituary references.
In a practice like Lok Sabha, the Assembly will now pay obituary tributes and then proceed with regular Government business on the same day.
According to the calendar, September 22, 29 and 30 (if need arises) have been reserved for Government Business.
The Assembly secretariat has scheduled September 24 and 28 for Private Member Bills and September 25 for Private Member Resolutions.
The House will not assemble on September 23, 26 and 27. (KNO)
