Addressing the concluding session of the 86th All India Presiding Officers’ Conference and the 62nd Conference of Secretaries of Legislative Bodies here, Birla said the legislature is the forum through which the voice of the last person reaches the government. “When a citizen casts his vote, he does so with the belief that for the next five years his elected representative will place his issues before the House and that solutions will emerge,” the Speaker said.
