The Karnataka assembly lounge has introduced 15 recliner chairs, including two massage chairs, to facilitate post-lunch naps for MLAs. This move, spearheaded by speaker UT Khader, is designed to enhance attendance during post-lunch sessions. Khader observed a trend where numerous MLAs and MLCs would depart Vidhana Soudha after lunch, resulting in a significant drop in participation for the latter part of the session. By providing a comfortable space for relaxation, the assembly aims to encourage members to remain engaged throughout the day’s proceedings. The installation of these recliners underscores the legislature’s commitment to fostering a conducive environment for productive debates and decision-making. The initiative reflects a proactive approach to addressing attendance challenges and promoting active participation among elected representatives.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
