He said 52 matters were raised under Rule 280, while 23 members were allowed to speak on public issues, exceeding the usual limit of 10. Gupta said the 8th Legislative Assembly had conducted six Sessions in 18 months, compared with five Sessions held by the previous Assembly during its tenure.

The House discussed issues including garbage disposal, waterlogging, stray cattle, PWD roads and electricity bills.
