Tikaram Julie said directionless and disappointing
Leader of Opposition Tikaram Julie said outside the House that the Rajasthan government is misleading the public. The budget has been prepared on the basis of Congress’s announcements. The team that prepared the budget is the same that prepared Ashok Gehlot’s budget. There is nothing in the budget for farmers, laborers, and the common man. The budget is directionless and disappointing. The Leader of Opposition said that except for entrepreneurs, big businessmen and contractors from Gujarat, all sections of the society are disappointed with the budget. Tikaram Julie also said that the government has announced four lakh jobs. But it is not possible under any circumstances to provide four lakh jobs in Rajasthan which has eight lakh employees.

What is the problem with Madan Dilawar apologizing- Govind Singh Dotasara
Regarding the deadlock created by the opposition’s attacks on Madan Dilawar’s apology in the House, State Congress President Govind Singh Dotasra said outside the House that he wants the deadlock in the House to be broken but Madan Dilawar should apologize in the House. When he has accepted that a wrong statement has been made, then there is no harm in apologizing. He said that raising the issue of paper leak again and again does not prove anything. He should take action. The government is his, big fish should be caught, immediate action alone will not solve the problem. The State Congress President said that the way the people of Rajasthan have supported the Congress in the Lok Sabha elections, Congress is going to win all the 5 seats in the by-elections as well.
