The Congress party is strategizing for the upcoming monsoon session of the Chhattisgarh Assembly. A crucial meeting of the Congress Legislative Party has been scheduled for July 13th at 4 PM at Rajiv Bhavan in Raipur. The meeting will be chaired by the Leader of the Opposition, Dr. Charandas Mahant. The primary objective of the meeting is to formulate a strategy to challenge the BJP government during the monsoon session, which commences on July 14th. Sources indicate that the Congress is prepared to confront the government on several critical issues, including the proposed 8-12% increase in electricity rates, the deteriorating state of health and education services, the alleged 3200 crore liquor scam and administrative corruption, and the plight of agricultural schemes and neglect of farmers. Given recent political developments, the monsoon session is expected to be highly charged, with the Congress aiming to take an aggressive stance and the ruling BJP preparing its counter-strategy. Besides session strategy, the meeting will also address organizational matters and aim to improve coordination among legislators. It will also focus on ensuring that regional issues of public concern are effectively raised in the House. This meeting holds significance for the Congress, not only for the upcoming session but also in view of the forthcoming local body and Panchayat elections.
