General20014 sections
This Act establishes the minimum number of members required to be present for a meeting of the Goa Legislative Assembly to be valid. While the general rule for state legislatures in India is one-tenth of the total members, this specific law mandates a higher requirement of one-fifth of the total members for Goa. This ensures that decisions made by the assembly are supported by a larger majority of representatives, thereby strengthening the legitimacy and stability of the state's legislative proceedings.
