Bengaluru: The Budget Session of the State Legislature began here this morning with Governor Thaawarchand Gehlot addressing the joint Session of both Houses, during which he highlighted the Government programmes and plans with focus on the implementation of the five pre-poll guarantees of the ruling party.
Even as the Session began, the ruling Congress and the Opposition BJP and JD(S) are set for a major showdown after the Congress took over the reins of power in Karnataka on May 20. While the ruling Congress is set to project the implementation of its poll guarantees, the Opposition is keen on cornering it on the reported shortcomings of the schemes.
