The Delhi Assembly has taken a formidable step towards environmental sustainability and digital governance by transitioning to a completely paperless system run on solar energy.
This landmark initiative was inaugurated by Union Law Minister Arjun Ram Meghwal and marks the first such adoption in any Indian legislature, taking advantage of the National e-Vidhan Application (NeVA) to create a paperless environment.
Though the move was lauded by legislators, including the Leader of Opposition Atishi, concerns were also raised regarding the absence of the Question Hour in the session.
