1st Delhi Assembly

The 1st Delhi Assembly was the inaugural legislative assembly for the National Capital Territory of Delhi, established following the constitutional amendment that granted Delhi a greater degree of self-governance in 1991. The assembly convened its first session on December 4, 1993, and comprised 70 elected members representing diverse political parties. The primary function of the assembly was to legislate on matters pertaining to the governance of Delhi, including education, health, and urban development, while the central government retained control over law and order. The assembly's formation marked a significant milestone in India's journey towards decentralized governance, and it has since played a crucial role in shaping the political landscape of Delhi.
