Assembly sets up panel to examine Nagaland Municipal Bill 2023

Kohima: The state assembly on Thursday formed a seven-member select committee headed by deputy CM T R Zeliang to examine the Nagaland Municipal Bill, 2023.
The house had on Tuesday decided to refer the Bill to the select committee after the members deliberated on the urban local bodies election which has not been held in the state for almost two decades.
The announcement about the formation of the select committee was made by speaker Sharingain Longkumer before declaring the session sine die.
The detailed order on the working of the committee will be notified by the assembly secretariat, but normally any such panel set up to refer to a government bill needs to submit its report within three months, Longkumer said. PTI
