Assam Governor Lakshman Prasad Acharya in an order said the House will assemble at 9:30 am on February 16 for the session.
A senior official of the Assam assembly told PTI that the session will continue for four days.
“A vote-on-account budget will be tabled during these four days. The detailed programme has not been finalised yet, as the Business Advisory Committee (BAC) has not met so far,” he said.
