Mangalore Today News Network

Jaipur, Jul 27, 2020: After days of impasse, Rajasthan Governor Kalraj Mishra has said that not convening the Assembly was never the intention, but asked the state government to deliberate on three aspects, ANI reported on Monday, 27 July. These include a 21-day notice period before convening the Assembly session amid the COVID-19 pandemic, maintaining social distancing norms, and certain conditions to be followed if a confidence motion is moved.

Earlier, CM Ashok Gehlot’s government had proposed that the governor convene the Assembly session from 31 July, but the proposal had no mention of a floor test. The governor then sought a clarification pertaining to whether the CM wanted to move a confidence motion, and considering giving a 21-day notice to MLAs.

On the other hand, Rajasthan Assembly Speaker CP Joshi on Monday withdrew his plea in the Supreme Court, against the HC order asking him to defer his decision on disqualification notices issued to former Deputy Chief Minister Sachin Pilot and 18 other MLAs.
