Guwahati, Feb 25: The budget session of the Asom Assembly will begin tomorrow with the state's budget for the fiscal 2007-08 to be placed in the House on March 12.

The budget would be presented by Chief Minister Tarun Gogoi, who also holds the Finance portfolio.

This would be the second budget of the Congress government, after it retained power in the state in last year's Assembly polls.

Mr Gogoi had presented a Rs 1995.48 crore deficit budget last May after forming the government in coalition with the Bodoland People's Progressive Front.

Meanwhile, security blanket has been thrown around the state Assembly, with heavy deployment of security personnel in adjoining areas also.

Besides regulation of traffic movement, checking of vehicles and frisking has also been undertaken at different points in the city.

The budget session would conclude on March 31.
