Puducherry Lt Governor Kiran Bedi's field visits echoed in the assembly here today with the Congress government saying she should inform it beforehand in the interest of her own safety.
Referring to her weekend field visits and the incognito two-wheeler ride some months ago, Chief Minsiter V Narayanasamy said he had "no objection" to the Lt Governor's interactions with the villagers to hear their grievances.
"The Lt Governor rode pillion on a two-wheeler at night a few months ago without informing the police although it is the government's duty to provide her protection," he said adding Bedi should keep the authorities posted of her visits.
Intervening, Speaker V Vaithilingam said, "It is a matter of concern that the Lt Governor is not keeping the government informed before taking up visitsand not conducting a proper survey of the locations she was planning to visit."
Earlier, the AIADMK legislature party leader A Anbalagan and his colleagues approached the Speaker's podium to produce packets of rice and other provisions and alleged that there was "no supply" of freebies to the card holders in Puducherry.
Unfazed by the noisy protests of the Opposition members, the Chief Minister went ahead with the presentation of the copies of official notifications on GST.
Later, MLAs of AINRC and the AIADMK staged a walk out in protest against the "failure" of the territorial government to improve fiscal situation.
After transacting business scheduled, the first of the monsoon session was adjourned sine die in just 55 minutes.
There was tight security inside and outside the Assembly premises.
