Shejwar too said that he would not allow Rawat speak a single sentence if he was not allowed to express himself. Shejwar's comments further infuriated Congress legislature.
The issue was later resolved by Leader of Opposition and legislative affairs minister.

After election both the ruling and opposition party should work for country, State and peoples welfare. Resulting is being democracy prosperous and country will march ahead. Coopertion of both the party is necessary in democracy to fly high. The citizens are priceless treasure and to safe guard them is the duty of the legislature.

Deep strong roots always strenghting the trees.

The flow of Dharma is not automatic, it has to spread effortfully. Accumulation of funds should only be for the public distribution. Indian distribution system should be reformed.

Education and medical facilities should be inproved further. Both are must stay away from commercialisation. Save student from being physically and mentally ill.

History is being ignored. Identify your pride and revitalize history again. Arcuse selfesteem in our minds.

Not only west, India is also enriched with the knowledge of science. Old India is enriched with the knowledge of all kind.

Education system should be based on mother tongue. English is not bad, can be read as language but teaching and speech is best in our mother tongue. Exellency is proved only in mother tongue.

No other country is as prosper as India in a democratic way.
