Earlier on Monday, CM Yogi called for discussions on issues of the poor, youth, farmers and women during the Monsoon Session of the Legislative Assembly.
Speaking to reporters on the first day of the Assembly Session, CM Yogi hit back at the Samajwadi Party (SP) for raising the Ram Mandir donation embezzlement issue, stating that they obstructed the construction of the temple.
Adityanath noted the legislature as a crucial platform for discussing and resolving the issues faced by the people of the state. He noted that the month of Shravan was significant for farmers, for students with reference to admissions, and for Kanwar Yatra.
The Chief Minister said, "The Monsoon Session of the Uttar Pradesh Legislative Assembly will begin today. I welcome all the MLAs. This is an important session for us. The legislature serves as a crucial medium for conveying the voice of the people to the government and administration. The legislature is the best platform to discuss and review issues concerning the poor, farmers, the youth, and women, and to bring them to a resolution."
"Each MLA can present the issues of their constituencies and the government can resolve them. Better use of the platform is the primary objective of the BJP-led NDA government, and the double engine government is working towards it," he added.
