CONG TO BRING NO-CONFIDENCE MOTION AGAINST HARYANA GOVT TODAY: HOODA

- HT Correspond­ent letters@hindustant­imes.com

CHANDIGARH: Senior Congress leader and Leader of Opposition in the Haryana assembly, Bhupinder Singh Hooda, said on Thursday that the party will table a no-confidence against the ruling Bharatiya Janata Party Jannayak Janta Party (BJP-JJP) government in the state on Friday.

“The Speaker would decide when the House will discuss the motion and vote on it,” Hooda told mediaperso­ns.

The budget session comes at a time when the ruling combine is grappling with too many dissension­s and conflicts amid the ongoing farmers’ protests against the Centre’s new farm laws. Saying that the no-trust vote will make it clear who is with the farmers, the opposition will also take on the government over unemployme­nt, law and order and the price of cooking gas and other essential commoditie­s.The Congress legislatur­e party (CLP) leader said that BJPJJP cabinet lacked capability and coordinati­on. “The fact is that personal agendas and not public interest dictate the functionin­g of this coalition,’’ Hooda said.

Hooda said they also plan to bring an adjournmen­t motion to draw the attention of the government to multitude of problems faced by the people of the state.

“We will seek answers on issues such as farmers’ neglect, rising unemployme­nt, changes in domicile regulation­s, rising crime, paper leaks, liquor and registry scams,” he said.

Hooda said the slogan of 75% reservatio­n in private jobs was the biggest fraud with the youth of Haryana because the government has provided an exemption clause in the law for employers.
