While discussing with the mediapersons today, Kamal Nath said that everyone has expressed the desire that the House should run seriously and peacefully. "We are all in favour of that the present government should allow us to speak without disturbing the harmony of the House. Issues like cow slaughter, providing farmers' pension and crop insurance is all a matter of discussion. hoping that the government will address it," said Nath.
Congress leader Govind Singh alleged that the State Government constantly runs away from public issues and does not want to address them.
Speaking to reporters today, Singh said, "The all-party meeting is called only for namesake. The government is afraid. They fear that their issues of corruption should not come in the public. The problem of employment should not come up, the issue of delayed pensions should not come.....these are their fears."
On Monday, the session will start with Governor Mangubhai Patel's address to the House.
