Agartala, 21st August 2026 : The Tripura Legislative Assembly will convene its monsoon session on August 27, with sittings scheduled for August 27, 28 and 31. The schedule was finalised at a meeting of the Business Advisory Committee (BAC) chaired by Assembly Speaker Rampada Jamatia on Friday.
The House will begin its proceedings at 11 am. Explaining the decision to start the session on Thursday, Speaker Jamatia said this was done to avoid a weekend interruption that often occurs when sessions begin on Fridays.
The Speaker said no major bills are currently listed for consideration, though additional legislation could be introduced during the session. A short-duration discussion notice submitted by Congress MLA Sudip Roy Barman on smart meters and electricity bill-related issues has already been accepted. Further notices on other matters are also expected.
During the BAC meeting, members discussed the session’s agenda, programme and other arrangements aimed at ensuring the smooth and effective functioning of the House.
On the proposed transition to a paperless Assembly, Speaker Jamatia said the process is still underway and will require some additional time before implementation.
