Assembly Speaker Dr Raman Singh Calls Journalists’ Contribution in State’s 25-Year Journey Invaluable
Raipur (thestates.news) | Chief Minister Vishnu Deo Sai lauded the critical role of parliamentary reporters in bridging the gap between the legislative assembly and the people. Addressing a day-long workshop on parliamentary reporting held in the Assembly auditorium, the Chief Minister extended greetings to citizens as the state marks 25 years of its formation and democratic consolidation.
“Over these 25 glorious years, the Chhattisgarh Assembly has evolved as a strong institution upholding democratic values. The recently held orientation workshops for newly elected legislators have been beneficial, and it is equally important for journalists to stay abreast of parliamentary processes,” Sai said. He observed that a large number of first-time MLAs are now part of the House and underlined their responsibility to voice people’s concerns effectively.
“The commitment and hard work of parliamentary reporters ensure that citizens know how their issues are debated and addressed by their representatives. The tradition of honouring outstanding journalists further encourages fair and rigorous reporting,” the Chief Minister added, expressing confidence that the workshop would prove immensely useful in strengthening democratic discourse.
