At the meeting at his official residence in Lucknow, which was attended by all major parties except BSP, Yadav said his government would ensure that House sittings were more than 90 days.
Seeking
cooperation of opposition parties in issues related to public interest,
the chief minister said that their problems would be heard and taken
care of.
"The
opposition has assured the CM of constructive and positive support to
the SP in the House on issues of the common man," SP spokesman and MLC
Rajendra Chowdhury said.
Among
those present at the meet were Leader of House in Vidhan Sabha Ahmad
Hasan and senior SP leader and minister Ambika Chowdhry. CLP leader
Pramod Tiwari, BJP Leaders Hukum Singh and O P Prakash Sharma, Peace
Party and Apna Dal leaders Dr Ayub and Anupriya Patel respectively and
RLD leader Thakur Dalveer Singh also participated in the discussions.
On
the absence of BSP, Chowdhury claimed that while the party should have
attended the meet, "It seems that they did not believe in democratic
courtesy."
"The party should shun petty politics on such issues," he said.
Later,
Speaker Mata Prasad Pandey also held an all-party meeting which decided
to hold discussion on Governor's address for four days instead of three
days.
"Earlier,
the discussion on Governor's address was kept for three days which has
been increased to four days from May 29-June 1.”
"In
view of local bodies polls in which MLAs have to give time in their
areas, we have also asked to reschedule the session accordingly," CLP
Leader Pramod Tiwari said.
BSP leaders, who were not present at the CM's residence, attended the meet held by the Speaker.
Leader
of Opposition in Vidhan Sabha Swami Prasad Maurya said that his party
would raise issues including the alleged 'goondaraj' prevailing in the
present regime.
The new SP government will present its first budget in this session.
