Reservation for city students in 28 DU colleges, a House committee report on desilting of drains, and weightage for Delhi-domicile aspirants in teacher recruitment will dominate the proceedings during a two-day special session of the Delhi Assembly starting tomorrow. An official said, "On the second day, MLAs will raise the issue of reservation for city students in 28 DU colleges that get financial aid from the Delhi government. Earlier this month, Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal had asked his deputy Manish Sisodia, who also holds the education portfolio, to explore if quota can be fixed for Delhi students in the 28 DU colleges. Besides, Petition Committee of the Delhi Assembly, headed by AAP MLA Sourabh Bharadwaj, is likely to table tomorrow its report in the House on desilting of drains by Public Works Department(PWD) and municipal corporations ahead of monsoon. Around 9,000 teachers will be recruited by the Delhi government soon.
