SP to lead charge against Yogi govt on price rise, law and order in assembly

May 22, 2022 20:28

The first session of the 18th legislative assembly of Uttar Pradesh is set to begin on a stormy note with the Samajwadi Party -- the main opposition party -- aiming to corner the BJP-led state government on the issue of price rise and law and order.

"The current BJP-led government in the state is responsible for the price rise of various commodities ranging from fuel to vegetables, fruits and edible oil. The law and order situation in the state has worsened. The health sector is in a very bad shape, and patients' attendants are being beaten up in hospitals in Kanpur," Samajwadi Party MLA from Sishamau assembly constituency in Kanpur said.

"The situation is very grim. We will raise all these issues in the assembly, and will seek an answer from the government," he said.

He said that the BJP-led government has "miserably failed" on all fronts. The session will commence on Monday with UP governor Anandiben Patel addressing the members of legislative assembly as well as the legislative council, special secretary to UP Vidhan Sabha Brij Bhushan Dubey said.

The 2022-2023 Budget is likely to be tabled on Thursday. -- PTI
