Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath set a visionary tone at the 86th All India Presiding Officers’ Conference finale, proclaiming the legislature as the essence of democracy—where justice, equality, and sovereignty take root.
This landmark gathering in Lucknow featured nationwide presiding officers’ expertise, ending with six resolutions propelling ‘Developed India 2047′. Yogi described it as a transformative force for democratic renewal.
Addressing the session, he acknowledged Lok Sabha Speaker Om Birla and Rajya Sabha’s Harivansh, crediting them for elevating institutions. Legislatures define justice pathways, channel policies into empowered societies, and embody sovereignty through meaningful exchanges.
India’s democratic lineage traces to ancient panchayats, uniting diverse regions in one ethos, as PM Modi highlights. Yogi’s five Lok Sabha stints taught him rule-bound house mastery.
Emulating Parliament, UP Assembly revamped question hour for broader participation. Even the last person’s voice echoes here via reps, he said, lauding the Viksit Bharat-aligned resolutions.
UP’s vision document emerged from 377 MLAs’ all-night sessions, 500 leaders, and intellectuals’ 75-district outreach, amassing 9.8 million suggestions refined by IIT Kanpur.
Digital, paperless systems advance green goals; legislator training is prioritized. Mandate 30 session days, with UP’s marathon sittings from 11 AM to late night sans breaks.
Committees tackle hot-button issues; special debates mark key occasions. This conference fosters peer learning; UP commits to all resolutions, Yogi assured.
