Every MLA can now access everything, including statements, agenda, reports, Bills, Budget, minutes and proceedings that were tabled in the Assembly in the past year, on the desktop installed on their table, Tamil Nadu Finance Minister Palanivel Thiaga Rajan said on Tuesday.
The plan is to make available all the data on their monitors since the inception of Madras Presidency’s legislative council in 1921 so that in real-time MLAs can extract data, question the government and get into a debate, he said.
He was speaking at the inauguration of a two-day international conference on ‘Memory Studies Memory in a digital age’ at the Indian Institute of Technology Madras Research Park.
