Yogi government plans joint session of state legislature at Mahakumbh

“The logistics for the lawmakers participating in the meeting, who will also take a holy dip in the Sangam, must be arranged. With more than 500 members, security and accommodation arrangements will need to be carefully managed,” said a senior government official.Once all logistics are in place, the state government is likely to approach President Murmu to address the joint meeting in Prayagraj, said the sources. However, the dates for the event will be finalized between the second and third Amrit Snans, from January 14 (Makar Sankranti) to January 29 (Mauni Amavasya).Meanwhile, the response of opposition lawmakers to the proposal for a joint session will be interesting to observe.In the 403-member state Assembly, the ruling BJP has 257 legislators, the Samajwadi Party 107, NDA allies Apna Dal 13, Rashtriya Lok Dal (RLD) 9, SBSP 6, and the NISHAD Party 5.
