In an embarrassment to the AAP government in Punjab, Governor Banwarilal Purohit had on Wednesday thwarted the Bhagwant Mann-led regime's plan to summon a special assembly session to bring a confidence motion.
The Governor withdrew an earlier order calling the special session on Thursday, saying it had sought legal opinion after the Congress and the BJP approached the Raj Bhavan arguing that the House rules did not allow it.
Since the objection was raised by the Governor on holding a session only for bringing a confidence motion, CM Bhagwant Mann says session being convened on September 27 would also discuss important issues like the power situation and burning of stubble
CM Maan tweets: "People grow up in democracy...not allowing the government elected by the people to work...democracy is murder...in today's cabinet meeting it was decided to convene a session on 27th September...rivers cannot be dammed...long live the revolution..!"
