The state Assembly Speaker Rajendra Trivedi announced the awards on the fourth day of the ongoing state Assembly’s Monsoon session in Gandhinagar.

Parameters of the Best MLA award
A decision was taken to institute the award earlier in February and in June, the rules and parameters were finalised following which a selection committee was constituted under the chairmanship of the Speaker. Some of the parameters of the award includes knowledge about parliamentary procedures, attendance and cooperation in maintaining decorum of the House, conduct in the House, and in public life, he said.
The chief minister congratulated both the senior legislators on receiving the award and said he was confident that this new tradition will encourage other members to follow the footsteps of the award-winning MLAs.
