  • Arunachal Pradesh Legislative Assembly
    ARUNACHAL PRADESH LEGISLATIVE ASSEMBLY ORIGIN AND GROWTH With the enactment of the NEFA Panchayat Raj Regulation (No.3 of 1967), the grounding for the Legislative Assembly of Arunachal Pradesh was prepared. This Regulation introduced a three-tier system: Gram Panchayat at the Village level, Anchal Samiti at the Block level and Zilla Parishad at the District level. An apex Advisory Body, known as the Agency Council with the Governor of Assam as its Chairman, came into being on 29th December, 1969. A step further in the direction was taken with the enactment of NEFA (Administration) Supplementary Regulation, 1971 (No. 4 of 1971) which provided for replacement of the Agency Council by Pradesh Council and appointment of five Counselors’, one from each District, who were in charge of various development departments. This Pradesh Council thus came into being on 2nd October, 1972. As a natural outcome, the demand for a Legislative Assembly was pressed in every sitting of the Pradesh Council which made the Union Government to send a study team to assess the standard of Parliamentary acumen attained by the people of Arunachal Pradesh. The Union Government, after studying all aspects of the matter, agreed to the demand of the people for a Legislative Assembly, and on 15 August 1975, the Pradesh Council was converted into the Provisional Legislative Assembly of the Union Territory with all the members of the Pradesh Council becoming members of the Provisional Legislative Assembly and the Councilors being given the rank of Ministers. STRUCTURE OF LEGISLATURE Arunachal Pradesh has unicameral Legislature ever since its inception.

  • Public Accounts Committee
    PUBLIC ACCOUNTS COMMITTEE Introduction In a parliamentary democracy like ours, the Committee system assumes great importance. Administrative accountability to the legislature becomes the sine qua non of such a parliamentary system. The check that Parliament exercises over the executive stems from the basic principle that Parliament embodies the will of the people and it must, therefore, be able to supervise the manner in which public policy laid down by Parliament is carried out. However, the phenomenal proliferation of governmental activities has made the task of legislatures very complex and diversified. By its very nature, Parliament, as a body cannot have an effective control over the government and the whole gamut of its activities. Administrative accountability to the legislature through Committees has been the hallmark of our political system. The Committee on Public Accounts enjoys the place of pride in our Committee System. Genesis of the Committee The Committee on Public Accounts was first set up in 1921 in the wake of the Montague-Chelmsford Reforms. The Finance Member of the Executive Council used to be the Chairman of the Committee. The Secretariat assistance to the Committee was rendered by the then Finance Department (now the Ministry of Finance). This position continued right up to 1949. During the days of the Interim Government, the then Finance Minister acted as the Chairman of the Committee, and later on, after the attainment of Independence in August, 1947, the Finance Minister became the Chairman. This naturally restricted the free expression of views and criticism of the Executive. The Committee on Public Accounts underwent a radical change with the coming into force of the Constitution of India on 26 January, 1950, when the Committee became a Parliamentary Committee functioning under the control of the Speaker with a non-official Chairman appointed by the Speaker from among the Members of Lok Sabha elected to the Committee.

  • Vital Stats Parliament in Winter Sssessionsession 2010
    Vital Stats Parliament in Winter SSSessionSession 2010 Most sessions of Parliament in the recent past have started off with disruptions on some issues that a section of MPs felt agitated about. However, in each case, Parliament managed to find a way of evolving a consensus. This session has been unique insofar that Parliament continued to be stalled throughout the duration of its sitting. We managed to access the Resume of Work for all sessions since the beginning of the 8 th Lok Sabha (1985). The record of the current session is the worst among these 82 sessions. The record of the current session is the worst in the past 25 years Both Houses saw protests over the government’s reluctance to constitute a JPC on the issue of 2G spectrum allocation. Lok Sabha worked for 7 hrs and 37 min, 5.5% of available time and Rajya Sabha for 2 hrs and 44 min, 2.4% of available time. Actual hours of sitting as a percentage of available hours The Resume of Work records the “number of actual sittings” and the “number of hours of sittings” in the session. Since 160% 140% Lok Sabha meets for six hours each day, this can be used to 120% calculate the number of ‘available hours’. 100% th The 8 Lok Sabha, despite the Bofors issue, worked for more 80% than 100% of the available time in 13 of the 14 sessions. In 60% the 13 th Lok Sabha, when issues such as the Ketan Parekh 40% 20% stock scam and Tehelka expose came up, the lowest 0% percentage of working hours in a session was 59%.

  • Introduction:- While Replying to Questions In
    Introduction:- While replying to questions in the House or during discussions on Bills, Resolutions, Motions etc., Ministers on several occasions give assurances, undertakings or promises either to consider a matter, take action or furnish information later. The Standard List of forms constituting Assurances, may be seen at Annexure-I. In order to ensure that these assurances etc., are implemented and in a reasonable time, the Lok Sabha has constituted a Committee on Government Assurances with a view to institutionalizing the procedure to ensure the fulfillment of promises and undertakings given from time to time by the Minister on the floor of the House. Constitution of the Committee:- Until 1953, there was no institutional arrangement to pursue the assurances, promises etc., given by the Minister on the floor of the House and it was left to each individual Member to keep watch on the assurances/promises made by the Ministers. On 1 December, 1953 the Speaker nominated the first Committee on Government Assurances with six Members on it. The strength of the Committee was later on increased to fifteen Members on 13 May, 1954 by the Hon'ble Speaker. The Chairman/Chairperson is appointed by the Speaker from amongst the Members of the Committee. A Minister is not nominated as a Member of the Committee and if a member after his nomination to the Committee is appointed a Minister, he ceases to be a member of the Committee from the date of such appointment. The term of office of the members of the Committee shall not exceed one year from the date of its constitution.
