LG Kiran Bedi to skip House address for presentation of Puducherry Budget

LG says Chief Minister V Narayanasamy has not sent her the annual financial statement and demand for grants

Lt Governor Kiran Bedi has said she will not deliver her customary address of the budget session as Chief Minister V Narayanasamy had not sent her the annual financial statement and demand for grants meant to be presented in the House on Monday.

She said she has informed the chief minister that he had not sent her the documents as required under the provisions of the Government of Union Territories Act 1963.

In a letter to Narayanasamy, a copy of which was shared with mediapersons through WhatsApp, she asked him to give a new date for budget presentation.

"It is a serious omission,"
