Bills should not be passed in haste: Speaker

Legislative Assembly Speaker K B Koliwad on Saturday said he would not allow bills to be passed in haste in the House.

Speaking to reporters here, Koliwad said he was of the opinion that there should be a comprehensive discussion before any bill was passed.

"The government should provide copies of the bills well in advance so that members can come prepared. I will raise the matter at the Business Advisory Committee meeting," he said.

The legislature session commences on February 5.
