"There will be no question hour tomorrow and a resolution will be passed to condole Yadav's death," Pandey said. According to government officials, the state government proposes to present its first supplementary budget for 2022-2023 during the Winter Session.
The state government may carry out some legislative business and is also likely to table the ordinances promulgated after the monsoon session of the state legislature. A statement issued by the UP Legislative Assembly, Speaker Satish Mahana urged the leaders of political parties to co-operate for the smooth functioning of the House.
Mahana said in a parliamentary system, democracy is strengthened by communication and positive discussion. The Speaker also asked party leaders to put up their views in the House in a decent manner, and discussions should take place in a harmonious way.
Parliamentary Affairs minister Suresh Khanna assured the leaders that the government will work with full seriousness to give pace to development and take it forward. Samajwadi Party was represented by Manoj Pandey in the meeting, the statement added.
