Imphal, August 21 2023:
Amid the rising demand for convening session of the Manipur legislative assembly, especially to discuss the present conflict in the state, and after failing the first attempt to hold the session, the state cabinet on Monday set another date of August 29 for the assembly session.
The cabinet meeting held at the CM's secretariat on Monday evening resolved to hold session of the state legislative assembly on August 29 .
Consequently, the cabinet recommendation was forwarded to the Governor's secretariat.
At the time of filing this report, the government is awaiting assent of the Governor.
Mention may be made that the state cabinet, in its earlier meeting, resolved to convene normal session of the state assembly on August 21 and the recommendation was forwarded to the Governor's secretariat for her assent.
However, the Governor did not give her assent, which forced the state cabinet to take another resolution and send the recommendation accordingly.
