The Speaker of the Haryana Assembly was addressing the launch event of the Assembly’s magazine “Sadan Sandesh” at the Haryana Assembly complex on Tuesday. Prior to this, Chief Minister Nayab Singh Saini, Speaker Harvinder Kalyan, Minister of Parliamentary Affairs Mahipal Dhanda, Deputy Speaker Dr. Krishan Lal Midhha, MLA B.B. Batra, and the magazine’s advisory editor Dr. Chandra Trikha, jointly launched the magazine. On this occasion, Cabinet Ministers Rao Narbir Singh, Vipul Goel, Dr. Arvind Sharma, Shyam Singh Rana, Ranbir Gangwa, Kumari Arti Singh Rao, and BJP State President Mohan Lal Kaushik were also present.
In his address, Harvinder Kalyan said that the launch of this magazine is happening at a very special place, which holds a unique identity not only in India but across the world. The Capitol Complex, where the Haryana Assembly is located, is an exemplary model of magnificent architecture, as one side houses the executive branch—the Civil Secretariat—and on the other side, the judiciary—the Honorable High Court—established. It serves as a remarkable example of both uniqueness and grandeur.
The Speaker said that the magazine includes a detailed review of all the sessions of the Haryana Assembly over the past year, providing the public with accurate and legal information regarding the proceedings of the House. This magazine is not only informative and interesting but will also play a significant role in raising public awareness. The Haryana Assembly aims to ensure that the publication of this magazine continues regularly.
He added that Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s vision of “One Nation, One Legislature” should be promoted so that all state assemblies and legislative bodies across the country can engage in meaningful discussions and make effective decisions on a common platform. He further stated that until the common people and local institutions are not aware of the legislative system, these institutions cannot be fully strengthened. This magazine will help inform the public about the roles and responsibilities of the Panchayats, local bodies, state assemblies, and the Lok Sabha, thus aiding in the empowerment of these institutions.
Harvinder Kalyan also mentioned that under the leadership of Lok Sabha Speaker Om Birla, the Haryana Assembly has introduced several innovative initiatives in the past year. These include orientation camps for MLAs, training camps for officials and employees, and various capacity-building programs in collaboration with the Lok Sabha and the Haryana Government. The Assembly has also launched an Annual Capacity Building Plan, which outlines the complete framework for upcoming training programs.
Minister of Parliamentary Affairs Mahipal Dhanda remarked that the launch of the “Sadan Sandesh” magazine today is a prime example of the Speaker’s visionary leadership. He emphasized that through this initiative, not only Haryana but other parts of the country will be able to see clearly the direction in which Haryana is progressing and what the true vision of the state is. The meaningful debates that take place in the House between the ruling party and the opposition, the beauty of democracy, and the dialogue process between elected representatives and the public—these aspects are captured in the magazine. This publication will play a crucial role in strengthening democratic values.
