  • Delhi Assembly to have a Committee for Students and Youth

Delhi, 31 May 2016: The General Purposes Committee of the Legislative Assembly of N.C.T. of Delhi, in its meeting held on 30 May 2016, gave in-principle approval to a proposal to constitute a Committee on Welfare of Students and Youth in Legislative Assembly.

The General Purposes Committee which met under the Chairmanship of Shri Ram Niwas Goel, Hon’ble Speaker, considered written requests in this regard submitted by Hon’ble Members Shri Rajesh Gupta, Shri Som Dutt and Shri Ajesh Yadav and came to the conclusion that it is indeed necessary to have a Committee to look into ever increasing grievances and issues related to the students and youth in the legislative body of N.C.T. of Delhi.

The General Purposes Committee directed the Secretariat of the Assembly to place the matter before the Rules Committee of the Assembly. The Rules Committees is scheduled to meet early next week. Once the Rules Committee approves the draft rules, the same would be tabled in the House with the approval of Hon’ble Speaker.

If and when the House adopts the report of the Rules Committee, the Committee on Welfare of Students and Youth will come into existence. This Committee will be, perhaps, the first of its kind in the entire legislative history of India. Given the importance of the Committee, Hon’ble Speaker has decided that the Committee should be on the firm footing backed by the strength of duly approved rules rather than

Speaker creating an ad-hoc Committee.
