AP Assembly Session Schedule Finalised; Group-I Row on Aug 19
The Andhra Pradesh government's assembly is going to meet for four days.
Important leaders got together to plan what they will talk about each day.
They decided to discuss a report about reservations for Backward Classes on Tuesday.
They also planned a big discussion about a government job recruitment process from the previous government.
People are arguing about whether that recruitment process was fair.
The leaders decided to give this discussion plenty of time without rushing it.
The meeting was led by the Speaker and included the Chief Minister and other important leaders.
