With the entire opposition absent from the proceedings of the budget
session in Uttar Pradesh assembly for the second consecutive day, the
budget worth several hundred crores of 76 departments was on Friday
passed in mere 15 minutes.
The Samajwadi Party (SP), Bahujan
Samaj Party (BSP), Congress and the Rashtriya Lok Dal (RLD) are keeping
away from the proceedings after a vitriolic attack from Chief Minister
Yogi Adityanath on Thursday.
Tearing into the opposition, he
warned them not to preaching as if he opened his mouth, many opposition
leaders would not have a place to hide. Taking umbrage to this, the
opposition had announced boycott of the assembly proceedings.
The
budget was passed without any supplementaries or any debate. Fourteen
questions were put from the treasury benches and they were responded in
15 minutes and the budget passed.
A motion was moved in the House to congratulate election of Ram Nath Kovind as the 14th President of India.
Parliamentary
Affairs Minister Suresh Khanna also rebutted charges by the opposition,
given to the media, that the Chief Minister was unparliamentary in his
language and had threatened the opposition benches.
The budget session was to conclude on July 28 but chances are high now that it might be curtailed to July 24.
The
House was adjourned on Friday till Monday and it is expected that on
this day the budget of remaining departments, including Home, will be
presented and passed.
