Stage Set for Stormy Budget Session
Hindustan Times Chandigarh
|March 21, 2025
The budget session of the Punjab Vidhan Sabha starting Friday is likely to witness stormy scenes with the opposition parties preparing to corner the government over the police action against the farmer unions, arrest of their farmer leaders, brutal police assault on a serving army colonel, breakdown of law and order and a host of other crucial issues.
CHANDIGARH:
The opposition parties, particularly the Congress, went after the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) government on Thursday over the detention of farmer leaders and activists, who had been protesting at Shambhu and Khanauri, and dismantling of protest sites a day earlier, with Leader of Opposition in Lok Sabha Rahul Gandhi and Congress MPs staging a protest outside the Parliament to condemn the police action and demand their immediate release.
The government is also facing heat over its failure to name the 12 policemen who thrashed the army officer and his son over a car parking issue last week.
The Congress, the principal opposition party in Punjab, has already announced its intention to go after the AAP government in the state assembly over its handling of the farmer stir, the short duration of the assembly session, corruption, and unfulfilled promises.
