The Jharkhand Congress held a meeting on Sunday to discuss strategies for the upcoming budget session of the state assembly, which begins on February 24.
During the meeting, state Congress in-charge K Raju urged party MLAs to actively take part in assembly discussions.
“All MLAs were asked to maintain 100% attendance in the House,” said Parliamentary Affairs Minister Radha Krishna Kishore after the meeting.
The Jharkhand budget will be presented on March 3, and the 20-day session will continue until March 27. This will be the first budget under the Hemant Soren-led government since the JMM-led alliance won the November elections.
