Speaker Ramendra Debnath told the House today that the decision to end the session on March 12 instead of on March 26 was taken by the business advisory committee at its meeting yesterday following an unanimous recommendation.
Leader of the Opposition Ratan Lal Nath (Cong) moved a resolution yesterday to cut short the session and Chief Minister Manik Sarkar supported the move. Sarkar said there was no alternative but to curtail the assembly session as the party leaders have to go for poll campaigning.
