The Cabinet had approved the summoning of the special session of Vidhan Sabha in last month's meeting to oppose the Centre's notification extending the jurisdiction of the Border Security Force (BSF) along the international border and the Centre's three farm laws.
Punjab Chief Minister Charanjit Singh Channi had demanded that the Centre should abolish the farm laws by November 8 or else the state government will abolish them at the special session.
