"The Congress will also seek answers from the government on issues like rising unemployment in the state, irregularities in skill employment corporation, sending youths to the war zone in Israel, giving priority to outsiders in Haryana's recruitment, recruitment scams and the Agneepath scheme," Hooda said in a statement.

The Congress will also raise issues such as rising drug abuse, stoppage of scholarships for scheduled castes and backward class children, falling levels of education, farmers' plight, compensation for crop damage caused by floods and poor condition of roads among others, he said.

He said responsibilities have been assigned to MLAs on different issues. Adjournment and calling-attention motions will be given in the House by the MLAs.

Hooda said the public has no expectations from the upcoming budget because this government has not done any work except for "increasing" the debt of the state.

He also slammed the BJP-JJP government over the law-and-order situation in the state. "Criminals are fearless and the public is living under the shadow of fear," Hooda said.
