Chhattisgarh BJP Govt set to investigate former Congress’ cow dung procurement
BJP lawmakers and ministers launched a scathing onslaught on the Congress, leveling accusations of corruption against them during their tenure.
Delhi Mayor Dr Shelly Oberoi on Tuesday urged the opposition councilors of the Bharatiya Janata Party in the House to let the session, called for the discussion over budget, carry on smoothly on Wednesday so that the final budget can be presented by the Leader of the House.
She said that the session was called for discussions over the budget and for having useful suggestions from the members for the good of the city’s residents and completing the works pending since long.
She said that the House proceedings took place on the first day. However on Tuesday, which was the second day of the session, the BJP councilors disrupted the proceedings and did not let the house function at all.

Addressing a press conference later in the day, Oberoi said that the members of the house wanted to discuss the budget which is in favor of the people of Delhi including people from all walks of life.
There was a lot of work pending for 15 years that included maintenance of hospitals, revamping the MCD schools and disbursing salaries in time to the MCD employees.
It was sad to see the senior members of the opposition who have earlier chaired the committees and been here for a very long time also added to the disruptions of the house with such behaviour, she said.
Oberoi also accused the BJP members of making the house a political arena and not allowing the discussions to take place.
Leader of the House Mukesh Goyal, who was also present at the press conference, said that instead of keeping the session for two days, it was called for three days so that the suggestions can be properly taken from the members and a proper discussion is held.
