The session had earlier been scheduled to begin on June 24. But as the Vikravandi Assembly seat bypoll is due to be held on July 10, the Assembly session was advanced, the Assembly Speaker said.
The Business Advisory Committee ( BAC) will meet on June 12 to decide on the duration of the session. Speaker M Appavu would chair the meeting of the BAC which also comprises the Leader of the House Duraimurugan and Leader of Opposition Edappadi K Palaniswami.
