The Arunachal Pradesh Assembly today passed two bills relating to setting up of a technical university and livestock marketing via voice voting.

The Kameng Professional and Technical University Arunachal Pradesh Bill 2017 (Amended) was passed by the members to pave way for establishment of a private university at Bhalukpong in West Kameng district.

Education Minister Honchun Ngandam had tabled the bill during the Budget session in March this year.

The House referred the bill to a select committee under the chairmanship of Ngandam after various members had raised objections on certain clauses.

The report of the Select Committee was tabled in the Assembly by Ngandam on Saturday.
 

The second bill, the Arunachal Pradesh Agriculture Produce and Livestock Marketing (Promotion and Facilitation) Bill 2017, was tabled in the house by Agriculture Minister Wangki Lowang on Saturday which was also passed today.
