Speaker to address training session for Congress MLAs

State Assembly Speaker Vaju Vala will be addressing a training programme of Congress MLAs at Mehsana Water Park on February 19.

The programme is being organised by Congress Legislative Party (CLP) leader Shankersinh Vaghela. All the 59 MLAs of the Congress have been asked to attend the training session being organised to make the legislators aware of various provisions of the state Assembly to improve their performance. Gayasuddin Sheikh, a Congress MLA, said many of the legislators were not able to ask questions because of the lack of knowledge about the functioning of the House.

When contacted, state Congress president Arjun Modhwadia said the Assembly Speaker was always considered to be neutral. That was why Vala, despite having been elected on BJP ticket, had been invited, he said.
