New Delhi, Feb 27 (PTI) The budget session of the Delhi Legislative Assembly will be held from March 16 to 28, the Delhi Cabinet decided today.
The budget session will commence on March 16 and conclude on March 28. The date of presentation of the budget will be announced after a meeting with the Business Advisory Committee, Deputy Chief Minister Manish Sisodia said.
This was the first official meeting attended by both Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal and Chief Secretary Anshu Prakash after their controversial midnight meeting at the former’s residence.
Finance Secretary S N Sahay and GAD Secretary M K Parida also attended today’s meeting.
A participant of the meeting claimed that an official wore black armband in protest against the alleged assault on Prakash by some AAP MLAs last week. However, Sisodia denied the claim, saying, “No, (he) was not there.”
Ahead of the Cabinet meeting, Prakash had written to Kejriwal, informing him that he would attend the meeting, based on the assumption that the chief minister will ensure that there is no physical attack and verbal assault on the officers .
