Election For PAC Chairman Sparks Tension As YSRCP Boycotts Assembly

The election process for the Public Accounts Committee (PAC) chairman will begin today. Tension has arisen over the post as opposition YSRCP MLAs are absent from the assembly. While 18 votes are required for a PAC member’s election, the opposition has only 11 members. The tradition of assigning the PAC chairmanship to the opposition has sparked interest in the election process.
