Delhi govt calls one-day special Assembly session on Sept 9

The AAP government has called a one-day special session of Delhi Assembly on September 9 over a number of issues concerning the national capital.

The decision was taken today at a Cabinet meeting chaired by Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal.

"The Cabinet has decided to convene a one-day Special Session of Delhi Assembly on September 9 to discuss a range of issues including governance in the national capital," a senior government official said.

Last month, the Kejriwal-led government had also called a four-day session during which the Assembly ratified Goods and Service Tax (GST) Constitution Amendment Bill, becoming the third non-BJP-ruled state to do so.
 

The House had also passed Luxury Tax Amendment Bill under which there will be no tax on hotel room rent up to Rs 1,500.
