The first session of the 17th Tamil Nadu Legislative Assembly commenced with the Governor's address. The proceedings included the State song and the National Anthem, with the latter played at two points.
The inaugural session of the 17th Tamil Nadu Legislative Assembly got underway today, marked by the Governor's address to the members. The commencement of the proceedings featured the rendition of the State song, 'Tamil Thaai Vazhthu'.
Following the State song, the National Anthem was played. Notably, this session saw a deviation from the usual convention, as the National Anthem was also played towards the conclusion of the Governor's address, a departure from the past practice where it was typically rendered only at the end.
The Assembly is scheduled to convene for a three-day period, during which legislative business will be conducted.
