Pre-session strategizing took center stage during a protracted meeting of the state BJP legislature party convened at the Pradesh BJP office in Chhattisgarh last Sunday. Chief Minister Vishnu Deo Sai alongside fellow legislators, deliberated on the roadmap for the impending budget session, underlining the government’s priorities and objectives.

As the countdown to the session begins, legislators are gearing up to address a myriad of critical issues, ranging from the government’s policy agenda to responses to opposition inquiries.
