From Urdu to Sanskrit: MLAs take oath in six languages as Delhi Assembly session begins

New Indian Express  

NEW DELHI: The first session of the newly constituted Delhi Assembly commenced on Monday, with MLAs taking their oaths in six languages—Hindi, English, Sanskrit, Urdu, Maithili, and Punjabi—reflecting the linguistic diversity of the legislature. BJP MLA Arvinder Singh Lovely was sworn in as the pro-tem Speaker of the eighth Assembly and administered the oath by Lieutenant Governor Vinai Kumar Saxena at the Raj Niwas before the session began. Delhi PWD Minister Parvesh Sahib Singh Verma and Home Minister Ashish Sood were the next in line. Environment Minister Manjinder Singh Sirsa took his oath in Punjabi, while Law and Justice Minister Kapil Mishra opted for Sanskrit.
