Karnataka Legislative Assembly budget session curtailed by a day, to conclude on Mar 26
Bengaluru (PTI): The Budget session of the Karnataka Legislative Assembly has been curtailed by a day, to conclude on March 26, reportedly due to upcoming bypolls for two Assembly seats in the state.
The state legislature's Budget session, which began on March 6, with Chief Minister Siddaramaiah presenting the Budget for 2026-27 was originally scheduled to conclude on March 27.
Speaker U T Khader announced this in the House on Tuesday, following a meeting of the Legislative Assembly's Business Advisory Committee (BAC).
"As per the decision of the BAC, discussion on the Budget and demands will conclude today (March 24). The CM will reply to these discussions on March 26, following which the Appropriation Bill will be taken up for discussion and passage. After transacting business on March 26, the House will be adjourned sine die," he said.
Though the Speaker did not mention why the session was curtailed by a day, official sources said it was done keeping the upcoming by-elections in mind, as leaders, ministers, and legislators would participate in campaigning.
Leader of the Opposition R Ashoka and Labour Minister Santosh Lad indicated on Monday that the session might be curtailed due to by-elections.
Two Assembly seats in the state --Bagalkot and Davangere South-- will go to bypolls on April 9.
Bypolls for the Bagalkot and Davanagere South Assembly constituencies were necessitated by the deaths of senior Congress MLAs H Y Meti and Shamanur Shivashankarappa, respectively.
