ITANAGAR : The Committee on Government Assurances (GAC) of the Arunachal Pradesh Legislative Assembly on Thursday reviewed the implementation status of the assurances made by the state government on the floor of the House during previous terms and called for their timely compliance by the departments concerned.

The fifth sitting of the GAC of the eighth Arunachal Pradesh Legislative Assembly was held at the assembly secretariat conference hall here under the chairmanship of MLA Laisam Simai, according to an official release.

The committee examined the ‘Action Taken Replies’ submitted by the public works department, the sports department and the social justice, empowerment and tribal affairs department.

The assurances under review pertained to the fourth, fifth and seventh legislative assemblies.

Reviewing the progress of the pending assurances, the committee stressed the need for expeditious and effective compliance by the departments concerned to uphold the sanctity of the House.

Taking a tough stance on administrative delays, the panel resolved to seek fresh status reports on various incomplete projects from the respective departments for a threadbare examination during its upcoming sittings.

The meeting was attended by committee members and legislators Talem Taboh, Rotom Tebin, and Tsering Lhamu, alongside senior assembly secretariat officials, including Secretary Tadar Meena. (Source: PTI)
