All eight standing committees of the House, which undertook a marathon exercise to go into the budget allocations, performance in utilisation of earlier budget and fresh demands for grants, would submit their reports to the House on Monday.

Speaker Gulab Singh Thakur feels that the new system introduced for the first time in the state assembly had proved quite successful and MLAs were very satisfied with the business of the committees.

The reports of the committees once tabled in the House would now be taken up for discussions along with cut motions, which several members had moved. Some of the cut motions had come from the Opposition Congress in the departments like Health, Education, Public Works, Irrigation and Public Health, Home, Rural Development, Transport and Horticulture.

Besides its important agenda to pass the budget, the House would have legislative business during the next two weeks.

Chief Minister Prem Kumar Dhumal, who had presented the state budget, had already replied to the debate on the budget. During this week, Dhumal is likely to make a suo moto statement in the House on the state government having received NABARD projects worth Rs 100 crore for the construction of roads and other infrastructure fundings.
