During the tenure of Tejlal Tambhare Harishchandra as Speaker of the Madhya Pradesh Legislative Assembly, the day-to-day conduct of several Assembly proceedings was overseen by Narayan Prasad Shukla, who served as the Deputy Speaker. Contemporary accounts and Assembly records indicate that Shukla frequently presided over sittings, facilitated debates, and ensured the smooth functioning of legislative business, particularly during the Speaker’s absence or engagement in administrative responsibilities. [2]

As Deputy Speaker, Narayan Prasad Shukla played a key procedural role in maintaining order in the House, supervising legislative discussions, and guiding members on parliamentary practices. His active involvement in Assembly proceedings during this period contributed to legislative continuity and administrative efficiency within the Madhya Pradesh Legislative Assembly. [2]

Tejlal Tambhare Harishchandra, as Speaker, continued to hold constitutional authority over the Assembly, while delegating operational responsibilities in accordance with parliamentary conventions. This division of responsibilities between the Speaker and Deputy Speaker reflected established legislative practice in the state during that period. [2] ==List of Deputy Speakers== The Deputy Speaker of the Madhya Pradesh Legislative Assembly is the second-highest-ranking legislative officer of the Madhya Pradesh Legislative Assembly. The following is a chronological list of Deputy Speakers since the formation of the state in 1956.
