The monsoon session of Rajasthan Assembly will begin here tomorrow with the Opposition Congress all set to raise the issue of cow deaths', corruption and losses to farmers while the ruling BJP is planning to highlight various government initiatives, including Mukhya Mantri Jal Swavlamban Abhiyan.
"More than 27000 cows have died in the last two-and-a-half years in the Hingaunia guashala. Corruption is rampant in all the departments but the government is not bothered. The government's arrangements were also inadequate in dealing with the recent heavy rainfall," Leader of Opposition Rameshwar Dudi alleged.
Chief Minister should "resign" over the "issue of corruption", he said.
A huge scam in mining department was unearthed but the government did not refer it to CBI inquiry. Now, scams have come to light in Public Health and Engineering Department as well as in Medical and Health Department, Dudi said.
Saying that such "big scams" were not possible without the "patronage" from high level, he said Opposition will demand a debate on these issues in the house.
Dudi also said Chief Minister Vasundhara Raje should clarify her stand over the JDA action on former Jaipur Royal family's Raj Mahal palace.
The house will assemble tomorrow at 11.00 AM, Chief Whip Kalu Lal Gurjar said.
After obituary remarks, the house will be adjourned and a meeting of business advisory committee will be held to decide business of the house, he said.
