Delhi Assembly Winter Session Goes Digital, Saves Paper; Speaker Addresses Controversy

Delhi Assembly Speaker Vijender Gupta announced that the recent winter session, held from January 5-9, 2026, saw a significant shift towards digital functioning, saving over 3.38 lakh pages of paper, conserving approximately 40 trees, and reducing carbon emissions. This paperless initiative also resulted in cost savings of Rs 1.69 lakh. Gupta also addressed a controversy regarding alleged statements by AAP leader Atishi about Guru Tegh Bahadur, stating he acted with 'utmost restraint' and followed parliamentary norms, directing verbatim recording and factual ascertainment before any conclusion.
