Chief Minister's Vision
In the meeting, Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath said that the Uttar Pradesh Assembly is becoming a center of attraction for other states in the country due to technical innovations. He emphasized that meaningful discussions on issues related to public interest should take place in the House.
The Chief Minister stated that this will be the first assembly to have a detailed discussion on the 'Vision Document.' Suggestions from all parties will be included in it for the all-round development of the state. He clarified that this is not a political party's agenda but a shared blueprint for the future of the state.
Initiative Linked to the 'Developed India 2047' Goal
Parliamentary Affairs Minister Suresh Kumar Khanna said that this discussion is a historic opportunity, keeping in mind Prime Minister Narendra Modi's goal of 'Developed India 2047'. He said that until now, members used to talk about the issues of their respective regions, but this debate will determine the direction of the entire state's development.
Opposition's Cooperation and Suggestions
Leader of the Opposition Mata Prasad Pandey said that he would extend all possible cooperation for the development of the state. Congress Legislature Party leader Aradhana Mishra 'Mona' demanded that there should be a long and serious discussion on the Vision Document so that more and more suggestions could be received. She said that this process would lead to the formulation of solid and universally accepted policies for the future of the state.
However, during the session, the opposition may corner the government on some issues. These include subjects related to the merger of schools and the privatization of electricity. There is a possibility of uproar in the House on these issues.
Process of Presenting the Vision Document
The vision document to be presented by the ministers will contain details of each department's future plans, development work priorities, and goals. Its objective is to take the state to new heights in terms of social, economic, and infrastructure in the coming years.
