Amid talks that the upcoming monsoon session of Goa Legislative Assembly would be the last one before the state goes to polls early next year, Chief Minister Laxmikant Parsekar today hinted at holding one more session in November this year.
"We are thinking of having one more session in November this year. We have not yet finalised, but we might have another session in November after the monsoon session," Parsekar told reporters today.
Responding to a question, the Chief Minister said the state will go to polls next year (2017).
A section of media had earlier reported that the monsoon session of Goa Legislative Assembly, which is scheduled to start from July 25, would be the last one of the Parsekar-led government.
During the monsoon session, the state government will table the CAG and Economic Survey reports. Twelve bills and two ordinances are also planned to be placed.
