The Andhra Pradesh Assembly Winter Sessions started from the 30th of November.

On the first day of the Winter Assembly session, the Yuvajana Sramika Rythu Congress Party (YSRCP) Government tabled the Panchayati Raj Amendment Bill and approved it.
The new Panchayati Raj Amendment Bill 2020, was introduced earlier also and an ordinance regarding the same was passed.
However, the Members of the Legislative Assembly (MLA) of the YSRCP with majority votes, approved the bill.
Despite the uproar and opposition of the Telugu Desam Party (TDP) against the newly approved bill, the State Government decided to pass the bill.
