Parliament Goes into 9th Session Sunday

Parliament is set to go into its ninth session on Sunday after a 59-day recess as the last (budget) session was prorogued on July 9 last.

''The session will begin at 11 am tomorrow (Sunday) maintaining the health codes amid the COVID-19 pandemic as done during the last session,'' Chief Whip Noor-E-Alam Chowdhury told UNB on Saturday.

President Abdul Hamid on August 19 summoned the 9th session (4th session of 2020) of the 11th parliament exercising the power bestowed upon him as per Clause (1) of Article 72 of the Constitution. 

The last session (budget) was prorogued after only nine sittings due to the outbreak of Covid-19 in the country, which was the shortest budget session in Bangladesh history.

According to the Constitution, the gap between the end of a session of Parliament and the first sitting of the next session shall not exceed a period of 60 days.
