The members, who have courted controversy in the past for doing Facebook live from inside the well of the House, will now not be allowed to carry mobile phones inside the Assembly besides being disallowed to carry firearms, flags or banners, according to the new rules.
Once passed, the Rules of Procedures and Conduct of Business of Uttar Pradesh Legislative Assembly, 2023 will replace the Rules of Procedure and Conduct of Business of UP Legislative Assembly, 1958.
The Uttar Pradesh Legislative Assembly is all set to pass a new set of rules under which members will not be able to take their mobile phones inside the House, tear documents or stand or sit with their backs towards the Speaker.
