Clashes between the ruling party and the opposition in the House during the discussion on the budget –

During the discussion on the budget, there was a lot of bickering between the ruling party and the opposition in the House. Dharampur MLA Chandrashekhar said where did 69 National Highways go? He said that during the time of the previous government, it was said that the Chief Minister Public Works Building would be built, but it was not built in their place. New paths will be new destinations. Where did New paths will be new destinations go? Where is Swadesh Darshan Scheme? He did nothing during his time. There is a need to convene a special session on education and health, so that steps can be taken towards improving the condition of education and health in Himachal Pradesh. He said that when the Prime Minister came to Himachal, tents worth Rs 36 crore were set up. On this, the opposition members stood up in the House and started creating ruckus, then Assembly Speaker Kuldeep Singh Pathania said that they should sit, they will be given time. But arguments started from both the ruling party and the opposition. Jairam Thakur said that when the government does not understand the language of love then it has to speak in this way.
He himself does not have this kind of nature. He was understanding that the Prime Minister had come and set up tents worth Rs 36 crores. Speak on the budget. This is not the truth. When Rahul Gandhi came, the government had to compensate Rs 1 crore. The amount of work that has been done in his assembly constituency in the last five years, he cannot do even after winning ten times. Parliamentary Affairs Minister Harsh Vardhan said that Chandrashekhar has not said anything of a personal attack on anyone. MLAs have won from Mandi for the first time, they should be encouraged. Chief Minister Sukhvinder Singh Sukhu said that for the first time in its 52-year history, Statehood Day was celebrated in Dharampur. The former Chief Minister is saying that he has a calm nature. If this is a calm nature then what is anger? There is no need to take it to heart. The Leader of the Opposition has a big heart.
