Delhi Assembly Goes Green, Digital: Paperless Session Sparks Fee Debate
The Delhi Assembly commenced its first-ever paperless session on August 4, 2025, a significant step towards environmental sustainability. Powered entirely by solar energy, the session marks a new era in legislative proceedings.
The key agenda included a hotly debated bill aimed at regulating school fees. This proposal has already drawn sharp criticism from the opposition benches, promising a lively parliamentary exchange.
Alongside the fee regulation bill, the session will also address crucial CAG reports. The Assembly’s adoption of the National e-Vidhan Application (NeVA) will facilitate completely paperless proceedings.
This move towards digital governance is expected to significantly reduce the Assembly’s carbon footprint. The success of this initiative could pave the way for other state legislatures to adopt similar eco-friendly and efficient practices. The debate surrounding school fees, however, promises to be a key test of the government’s legislative agenda and its ability to navigate political opposition.
