Ahead of the two-day session of the Punjab Assembly by the Aam Aadmi Party government, the Governor’s Secretariat on Friday said the session is nothing but an attempt to extend the Budget Session, and “such an extended session is bound to be illegal, and any business conducted during such sessions is unlawful, and ab initio void.”
In a letter from the Governor’s Secretariat to the Assembly secretary, regarding the Assembly session set to start on October 20, it has been pointed out that earlier too, Governor Banwarilal Purohit had raised objections to a similar extended session titled ‘The Special Session of the 4th (Budget) Session of the 16th Punjab Vidhan Sabha’, in June.
