    Karnataka Assembly witnesses uproar as BJP protests against Congress government

    What's the story

    The Karnataka Assembly witnessed a ruckus on Tuesday after the opposition Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) protested against the alleged delay in the implementation of the poll promises made by the ruling Congress before the assembly elections.

    According to reports, BJP legislators stormed the well of the House and disrupted the proceedings on the second day of the assembly session.

    Context

    Why does this story matter?

    The BJP plans to corner the Congress administration on several issues despite having lesser representation in the assembly.

    Notably, Siddaramaiah's government is expected to present a series of bills to repeal legislation enacted by the previous BJP administration.

    The BJP and the Janata Dal (Secular) don't have enough members to challenge that, but the BJP might challenge it in terms of policy and management.

    Details

    BJP disrupts both Houses, protests outside assembly too 

    The second day of the assembly session got off to a turbulent start as the BJP disrupted business in both Houses, News18 reported.

    The agitation took place both inside and outside the assembly simultaneously as opposition members sought the effective implementation of Congress's five guarantees.

    Reportedly, former chief ministers BS Yediyurappa, Sadananda Gowda, and BJP state president Nalin Kumar Kateel protested at Freedom Park.

    Reaction

    Prepared to answer everything but after question hour: CM Siddaramaiah

    In response to opposition members' uproar, CM Siddaramaiah asked them to calm down and stated that the adjournment motion is always debated after the question hour.

    "Upto question hour, you can raise whatever questions you want to. Our govt is prepared to answer everything. It will happen only after the question hour and zero hour," he said.

    Background

    Siddaramaiah government misses July 1 deadline for 'Anna Bhagya' scheme

    The BJP has targeted the Congress, particularly over the implementation of the "Anna Bhagya" scheme, which promises to deliver five kilograms of grains to Below Poverty Line (BPL) families.

    This came after the Siddaramaiah government missed the July 1 deadline for the scheme due to the unavailability of adequate rice. It has now chosen to credit money to each beneficiary's bank account.

    Facts

    Know about other guarantees by Congress government

    Other guarantees by the Congress include the already launched "Shakti" scheme, which provides free travel in non-luxury buses to women.

    Moreover, the "Gruha Lakshmi" scheme, which would provide Rs. 2,000 a month to women heads of families, will start in August.

    The benefits of the "Gruha Jyoti" scheme, which promises up to 200 units of free power, will be reflected in bills from August.
