    "content": "We determine the calendar of the National Assembly. These dates have been gazetted. We are supposed to be going for a short recess for around 10 days, so that we can come back on 10th November 2015. After we have been here for a while, it is time to take this recess and head to our constituencies, so that we go and deal with the matters at the grassroots in a continuous way. It is not that Members of Parliament do not usually go to their constituencies. We go to our constituencies every weekend. This is an opportunity for us to go and spend time with our constituents, so that we can understand the issues on the matters of development and also their welfare. We need to sit down with them to discuss and come up with a way forward. This is the time when all Members of Parliament usually get to know their constituents very well."
