The session will coincide with tomorrow's Presidential election. There will be no question-answer session.

"The Assembly will take up two bills and have a question under short-call notice," official sources said.

The opposition Congress criticised the BJP government for calling a one-day session, that too without the mandatory question and answer session.

"It is after a gap of almost six months that the House will be meeting, but they have just called it for a day. This is murder of democracy," Leader of Opposition Shaktisinh Gohil said.

"It has been a tradition in Gujarat that when the House meets, question-answer session is mandatory," Gohil further said.

"MLAs would like to ask many question to the government when the elections are coming, but this government is not interested in giving answers to them," he said.
