]]> Punjab to hold first-ever mock assembly session on Constitution Day. Punjab to hold first-ever mock assembly session for students across all constituencies. This unique initiative will give students real exposure to how the Assembly works.

Speaker Kultar Singh Sandhwan said the event will take place on November 26, 2025. Students from all 117 constituencies reached the Vidhan Sabha earlier today. They attended rehearsal sessions and received basic training. Additionally, the programme aims to build political awareness among young learners.

Only Class 11 and 12 students from government schools are taking part. Meanwhile, each student will represent an MLA or Minister from their area. This setup will help them understand debates, questions, and decision-making inside the House.

A student from the Chief Minister’s constituency will act as the CM. Similarly, a student from the Speaker’s constituency will serve as Speaker. Vidhan Sabha Secretary Ram Lok Khatana trained the participants. He guided them on how to ask questions and join discussions.

Teachers and coordinators accompanied the students. For many, it was their first visit to Chandigarh. They thanked the government for giving them this rare opportunity.

MLAs Mohammad Jamil Ur Rahman, Manjit Singh Bilaspur, Kulwant Singh Sidhu, Balkar Sidhu, and Kunwar Vijay Pratap Singh attended the rehearsal. Finally, the roles were assigned: Harkamaldeep Singh as Chief Minister, Jagmander Singh as Speaker, and Harpreet Singh as Leader of Opposition.

]]> The National Citizen Party (NCP) of Bangladesh has warned the Election Commission after being denied the “Shapla” (water lily) symbol. NCP chief organiser Sarjis Alam said the party has no alternative but to get the Shapla symbol. He added that the EC must address the issue or face consequences.

Alam criticised the EC for ignoring the party’s earlier requests. He questioned whether officials were inactive or taking instructions from outside parties, despite claiming independence. The NCP demanded clarity on why the symbol was not included.

The EC clarified that the Shapla symbol does not appear in its reserved list of 115 electoral symbols. Earlier, NCP representatives met Chief Election Commissioner AMM Nasir Uddin. Party coordinator Nasiruddin Patwari said the registration must include one of the Shapla variants — Shapla, white Shapla, or red Shapla — and cannot be changed.

Bangladesh faces growing political uncertainty ahead of next year’s elections. The NCP warning adds tension, as student leaders previously joined Muhammad Yunus and other parties against the Awami League government led by former Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina.
