PH assemblymen slam Negri Sembilan government over assembly sitting postponement
SEREMBAN: Pakatan Harapan assemblymen have criticised the state government for postponing the state assembly sitting, which was scheduled to begin today, without officially notifying them.
Pakatan Harapan assemblymen have lambasted the Negri Sembilan state government for rescheduling a scheduled state assembly sitting without formally informing them. Nilai assemblyman J. Arul Kumar stated that they were unaware of the postponement as the October 16 to 22 sitting dates remained on the official e-Dewan portal. The assemblyman expressed concern that the postponement deprived elected representatives of the chance to question the state government on various issues.
He urged for the assembly to be convened soon, emphasizing that it is an essential platform for representatives to communicate with the government and address public concerns. Arul Kumar also noted that the October sitting should not be replaced by the upcoming Budget sitting in November, as the budget debate has a time limit. He hoped that resolving state administration issues would prevent any negative impact on the people's interests.
