By embracing the NeVA, Uttarakhand Assembly has become a digital House, it said

The e-Vidhan Sabha system has been adopted to make the work of the Uttarakhand Assembly digital and paperless.

Through this, the agenda of business, answers to questions asked in the Assembly and other documents will now be made available online to the MLAs.

Under this, tablets have been installed on the tables of the MLAs in the Assembly, and all the documents are being made available to them digitally.

Big screens have been put up on three walls of the assembly to display the proceedings of the House live.

This will not only help in environmental protection, but the proceedings of the Assembly will also be conducted with more efficiency, it said.
