Hyderabad, March 15 (Namaste Telangana): The opposition party BRS is preparing to insist on discussion in the assembly on six guarantees, Godavari river water dispute, Musi beautification, Gandhi Sarovar project etc. However, it seems that the ruling party Congress is thinking of ending the assembly sessions as soon as possible. It is learned that the ruling party has decided to end the meeting within 10 working days. In this, the governor’s speech, vote of thanks, introduction of the state’s annual budget, approval of the currency exchange bill etc. have to be completed.
It is known that the budget will be presented in the assembly on 20th of this month, the currency exchange bill will be passed on 29th or 30th, and the strategy will be adjourned. It was learned that the Chief Minister and the Cabinet were alarmed by the government’s suggestion that there is a possibility of BRS protesting in the House on six guarantees, delay in farmer assurance, corruption of Singareni coal mines, Speaker’s final verdict in the case of defection MLAs, demolition of the Moose, etc. It is informed that it has been decided to end the meeting till March 30.
Budget without Libra gold, Rs.2,500
Both Houses will begin with the Governor’s address at 11:45 am on Monday. New Governor Shiv Pratap Shukla is going to come to the Assembly for the first time. Department wise pre-budget meetings have already been completed under the leadership of Finance Minister Mallu Bhatti Vikramara. Bhatti will present the budget in Vikramarka Assembly on 20th of this month. According to the information available so far, it is known that the new budget is going to be introduced by reversing the old budget calculations. It is reported that old schemes such as Rythu Welfare, Mahalakshmi, Indiramma Indlu, Griha Jyothi in the last budget have been included in the budget.
It has been reliably learned that the balance of gold given by the Congress government under the election promise, increase of old age pension to Rs.4 thousand and Rs.2,500 financial assistance scheme for women who completed 18 years will not be implemented. The ruling party has leaked to the media that there will be an official announcement on financial assistance to women and old-age pension during the last Sankranthi. However, due to the financial situation, it was delayed, otherwise they would have done it and pushed it for a while. It is reported that there is no mention of those three schemes in the Tira budget.
BRS is ready with ammunition
Recently, the opposition BRS organized a workshop on how members should behave in the Legislative Assembly and Legislative Council. It is known that MLAs and MLAs have been trained on how to stop the government on the issues of debts, income, guarantees, evasions etc. by the Congress government. It has been decided to explain the figures of Sochi Yo Economic Survey, RBI and CAG in a way that is understandable to the public, and to explain the details of the debts taken by the Congress government in the open market and the debts taken by corporations with no income, including statistics.
It is learned that BRS has decided to insist on discussion on six guarantees, demolition of poor houses in Khammam, Naini scandal in Singareni, beautification of Musi, Andhra Pradesh’s construction project based on Godavari river water. It is reported that it has been decided to suspend the government for not giving Rythu Bharosa funds despite the end of Yasangi and announcing that it will be given for one acre on the 22nd. BRS has also decided to put pressure on the government on the implementation of Rs 2,500, old age pensions and Tulam gold schemes for women.
If the Deputy Speaker is not elected..!
This is the first time in the history of the state that the Assembly has been sitting without a Deputy Speaker for two and a half years. The executive officers say that there is no possibility of holding the election of the Deputy Speaker this time as well. The name of Dornakal Congress MLA Ramachandra Naik as Deputy Speaker of the Assembly was announced by the Congress leadership in June last year. He is currently continuing as a whip. Even if the name of Ramachander Naik is finalised, the process for the election of the Deputy Speaker has yet to be officially undertaken. However, this appointment is getting broken in every meeting.
There is no clarity on the election of the Deputy Speaker in this budget meeting either. A notification has to be issued before the election of the Deputy Speaker. Government sources say that the election was not held in the last assembly sessions due to lack of time. It is known that Ramachander Naik is aspiring for the post of minister. That is why he is not willing to take the post of Deputy Speaker. Similarly, while 18 committees are to be appointed in the assembly, the MLAs of the ruling party are expressing their displeasure over the fact that for the last two and a half years, they have not appointed 15 committees.
