Punjab Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann said that issues like electricity and stubble burning will be discussed in the Assembly session
Punjab Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann on Thursday said the session of the State Assembly will be summoned on September 27.
The decision taken at the State cabinet meeting comes a day after the Governor had withdrawn an earlier order calling the special session on Thursday to bring a confidence motion.
“Today, a cabinet meeting was held here. In this meeting it was unanimously decided that the Vidhan Sabha session will be summoned on September 27,” said Mr. Mann.
In the session, issues like electricity and stubble burning will be discussed, Mr. Mann said.
Mr. Mann further said they will approach the Supreme Court against the move of withdrawal of the order calling the special session.
In an embarrassment to the AAP government in Punjab, Governor Banwarilal Purohit on Wednesday thwarted the Bhagwant Mann-led regime's plan to summon a special assembly session to bring a confidence motion.
The governor withdrew an earlier order calling the special session, saying he had sought legal opinion after the Congress and the BJP approached the Raj Bhavan arguing that the House rules did not allow it.
