The monsoon session of Parliament is scheduled to begin from July 18. This session of Parliament is expected to be uproar this time. Because even before the start of the session, Leader of Opposition Mallikarjun Kharge has made preparations to surround the Narendra Modi government at the Center. The Leader of Opposition has kept many issues in his quiver including LPG, inflation, Agneepath scheme, China’s infiltration, falling rupee prices and misuse of government agencies for the central government’s siege. Kharge has prepared his issues for debate with the government in both the houses of Parliament. In the Parliament session, the Congress will demand the government to debate on these issues.
The new scheme brought by the Central Government for the recruitment of armed forces in the country is expected to be a ruckus at Agneepath. Congress can get support of many parties on this issue. There was an uproar in the whole country regarding this plan. The youth movement had taken a violent form in many states. Roads were set on fire, stone pelting train tracks were cut, trains were set on fire and a lot of government property was damaged in this movement.
LPG was expensive
Congress leader and Leader of Opposition Mallikarjun Kharge said that we will first invite the government in the House for a debate by putting together expensive LPG cylinders and inflation. Let us tell you that the rising prices of LPG in the country have spoiled the kitchen budget of the people. The price of LPG cylinder has now gone above one thousand. In the last one year, it has increased by more than Rs 200 per cylinder. The cylinder which was Rs 834.50 a year ago is getting more than Rs 1000 today.
Question to the government on Agneepath Recruitment
Leader of Opposition Mallikarjun Kharge said that our next question will be from the government regarding the Agneepath scheme. Congress has been against the Agneepath scheme from the very beginning. According to this scheme, the government will give the job of Agniveer to the youth in the army for 4 years, after which the job of 25 percent of the soldiers will be extended but 75 percent of the soldiers will be given a service fund package of Rs 11.71 lakh after 4 years. Apart from this, they will be helped to start another job through skill certificates and bank loans. There was resentment among the youth of the country over this plan and violent demonstrations took place in many states.
Congress will raise the issue of unemployment
The Congress is also preparing to surround the government on the issue of unemployment. Let us tell you that in the last 8 years, from the year 2014 to the coming to power of the Modi government till the year 2017, the unemployment rate averaged 5.4%. After this, unemployment came down marginally to 5.3 percent in the years 2018 and 2019. But after this the corona epidemic brought the unemployment rate to 8 percent in the year 2020. According to the World Bank data, the unemployment rate had come down to 6 percent in 2021, but according to the latest data from the Center for Monitoring Indian Economy (CMIE), India’s labor force participation rate fell from 47 percent in 2016 to 40 percent. Percentage done.
Question on falling rupee
Congress leader Mallikarjun Kharge said, “Congress will question the government on the falling rupee’s prices.” Let us tell you that in the global market, the rupee is continuously falling against the dollar. This is a matter of great concern. If the rupee is not strengthened, then perhaps in the coming times the situation of the country may also be like Sri Lanka. In such a situation, why the government is not paying attention to the strength of the rupee, the Congress will invite the government to both the houses for debate on this issue.
Question on persecution of minorities
Congress will also ask questions to the government to harass minorities in the country. Let us tell you that on June 2, US Secretary of State Antony Blinken had condemned the Indian government regarding the International Religious Freedom Report 2021 and said that religious attacks are increasing in India. This report says that India’s minorities have been attacked throughout the year. The comment of the Indian American Muslim Council also came on this.
Question on misuse of government agencies
Leader of Opposition Kharge said, “We will also raise questions from the government about the misuse of government agencies during the Parliament session. This government is weakening the autonomous body, misusing it and in many places the government itself is using its influence in it to harass people, exploit the leaders of the opposition parties, to bring down the governments. We will also discuss that issue which we are working to topple the governments regarding CBI. ,
Discussion on China’s infiltration and attacks
Kharge said that not only will we surround the government on all these issues, apart from this, the external threat of China is being attacked everywhere in our area nowadays, we would also like to discuss that issue. After that, these are the Forest Conservation Rules, which the Congress Party had earlier scheduled tribes for their protection, to protect them, to protect their land, they want to dilute it by following it according to the rules.
