It should be noted that senior Congress leader Harish Rawat does not miss any opportunity to corner the government. From time to time, he is seen increasing the problems of the government with his sharp satire. This time Harish Rawat has targeted the Dhami government regarding the special session of his assembly. Besides raising questions, questions have also been raised on this session. Harish Rawat wrote on his social media handle that there are many questions in the minds of the public and the MLAs regarding the assembly, which he wants to raise. Question Hour is an important period, be it Assembly or Lok Sabha, in which important questions related to the public are raised, without Question Hour the parliamentary tradition is incomplete.
He wrote that he is surprised that this session of the Assembly, which is being called a special session, is a special session in itself, because the previous session has not been prorogued yet, hence the procedure for calling a special session has not been adopted. Is. This is a kind of extension of the old session and not having Question Hour in it is a cruel joke with the democratic tradition of Uttarakhand, the government is misusing its majority. I think the Honorable Speaker should have taken cognizance of this matter himself. Now I don’t know what the Business Advisory Committee has decided today? But as a student of democracy, I am worried about the information that has filtered to me.
