Assembly panel visits Odisha

New Delhi: A delegation from the Delhi Legislative Assembly, led by Speaker Vijender Gupta, paid a courtesy visit to Odisha as part of a study tour aimed at exploring digital governance and sustainability initiatives.

During the visit, the delegation met with Odisha Governor Dr. Hari Babu Kambhampati, Odisha Legislative Assembly Speaker Surma Padhi, and Chief Minister Mohan Charan Manjhi.

Padhi shared her experiences and offered full cooperation, providing insights from Odisha’s own recent transition to a fully digital legislative environment.
