"CAG reports to be tabled at assembly session," says Delhi CM

The Chief Minister accused the previous government of "misusing" people's "hard-earned" money and said that they would have to account for every penny.

"We remain true to the commitments we made for Delhi and they will be fulfilled," Gupta added.

"The most important thing is going to come. We said that we should put the CAG report on the House table in the first session. This is people's hard-earned money which the previous government misused. They will have to account for each penny before the people," CM Gupta said in a presser.

The Chief Minister stated that the assembly session would last three days and focus on initiating works for the people of Delhi.

"All the MLAs will take oath on the first session of the government of Delhi. Both the Speaker and Deputy Speaker will be elected. The protem speaker will also be sworn in tomorrow morning by the LG, and this is a three-day session, where we will start with the works for people of Delhi, which comes under the purview of their rights," Gupta said.

Hitting out on the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP), the CM said, "People of Delhi have seen what they (AAP) are doing, what is their working style? What is their vision? In the last 12 years, Delhi has seen it. Our focus is on the people."

Meanwhile, Delhi BJP chief Virendraa Sachdeva apprised about the party meeting held today, saying that the elected MLAs gave inputs regarding carrying out development works in their constituencies to assist people.

As this happened, AAP national convenor Arvind Kejriwal congratulated former Chief Minister Atishi for being elected as the Leader of Opposition (LoP) in the Delhi legislative assembly. Atishi was chosen as the LoP at a meeting of AAP MLAs. Senior AAP leader Gopal Rai made the announcement at a press briefing after the meeting.

The assembly session will commence on February 24. CM Gupta will move a motion to elect BJP MLA Vijender Gupta as the speaker of the legislative assembly. According to the List of Business, BJP MLA Manjinder Singh Sirsa will second the motion.

In the meantime, Lieutenant Governor Vinai Kumar Saxena appointed BJP leader Arvinder Singh Lovely as the protem speaker.

The election of the legislative assembly speaker will be held at 2:00 PM, while the newly elected MLAs will participate in the oath-taking ceremony at 11:00 in the morning.

According to the Delhi assembly bulletin, LG Saxena will address the assembly on February 25, after which the Comptroller and Auditor General (CAG) reports will be tabled. Later in the day, the assembly will be open for motion of thanks at LG's address. (ANI)
