The Session of Budget of the Uttar Pradesh Assembly will begin today. The key issues likely to figure during the Assembly session include the Bundelkhand crisis, harassment of political workers, recommendation of CBI inquiry into the police recruitment scam & allegedly communally sensitive CD. The Session is likely to have a stormy start as the Congress would try to corner the Mayawati government on the Bundelkhand issue after allegations that the Centre was sleeping over its demand of a special package. The main opposition Samajwadi Party said it would take on the government on the issues of “political victimisation.”
“The party had been opposing the government on the issue of political victimisation as well as vindictive actions initiated against the political opponents and it would do the same in the house now,” state working committee of the SP, Shivpal Singh Yadav said here. BJP legislature party leader Om Prakash Singh said his party would be raising people’s issues including the Ganga Expressway project.
