The Haryana Legislative Assembly speaker called on state legislators to expand their role beyond constituency work and lead local civic and environmental projects.
In a recent address to members of the Haryana Legislative Assembly, the Speaker emphasized that the responsibilities of MLAs should extend beyond the traditional confines of their constituencies. He highlighted the urgent need for elected representatives to take an active role in improving civic infrastructure and promoting green initiatives across the state.
The Speaker urged legislators to collaborate with municipal bodies, civil society groups, and environmental experts to identify and implement projects such as waste management upgrades, tree‑planting drives, and water‑conservation schemes. He stressed that such efforts would not only enhance the quality of life for residents but also set a benchmark for other states.
He also called for the formation of dedicated committees within the Assembly to monitor progress, allocate resources, and ensure accountability for these civic and ecological programs. The appeal reflects a growing consensus among policymakers that sustainable development must be a shared priority among all levels of government.
