New Delhi, May 26: Lok Sabha Speaker Om Birla is set to launch the first issue of the Delhi Assembly’s quarterly magazine ‘Vidhan-Chetna’ on May 28. He will also unveil a significant publication consisting of 89 volumes documenting the proceedings of the Central Assembly from 1924 to 1930.
Delhi Assembly Speaker Vijender Gupta stated that this historic event represents a vital link between India’s rich parliamentary heritage and its contemporary legislative developments.
Gupta, who will preside over the event, emphasized that the ceremony underscores a deep commitment to preserving institutional history while promoting modern democratic dialogue.
The program will feature several distinguished guests and national leaders. According to an official statement, Union Minister of Parliamentary Affairs and Minority Affairs Kiren Rijiju will attend as a special guest.
Other attendees will include Delhi’s Minister of Legislative Affairs Pravesh Singh, Vice Chairman Mohan Singh Bisht, legislators, professors from Delhi University, and historians.
Gupta remarked that this dual launch holds profound historical and intellectual significance for researchers, parliamentarians, and citizens alike.
The publication of the 89 volumes documenting the Central Assembly’s proceedings (1924-1930) carefully archives a transformative era of pre-independence Indian governance, preserving the sharp debates and fundamental arguments of early Indian parliamentarians.
Complementing this historical legacy, the launch of ‘Vidhan-Chetna’ will introduce a new intellectual platform dedicated to analyzing current legislative matters, constitutional governance, and democratic practices within the National Capital Region.
An official statement noted that the launch of ‘Vidhan-Chetna,’ alongside the historical compilation of the Central Assembly’s proceedings (1924-1930), marks a significant milestone in strengthening India‘s democratic and parliamentary heritage.
The Delhi Assembly Secretariat affirmed its commitment to fostering informed democratic dialogue, institutional memory, and public engagement with parliamentary traditions by bringing together historical scholarship and contemporary legislative thought.
