State Assembly, has already received 589 questions with stars and 1,798 questions without any stars.
Additionally, eight government measures have been delivered to the Assembly, and more are anticipated.
The 18day program that lasted a month will come to an end on August 10. The new Rajya Sabha Member of Parliament will be chosen by a vote of the House on July 24.
Sadanand Shet Tanavade, the BJP’s state president, has been nominated.
With only seven MLAs, the opposition has chosen not to put out any candidates in favor of uniting in the House to discuss issues affecting the State.
In the meantime, the North Goa District Magistrate has imposed Section 144 in anticipation of the Session from July 18 to August 10, which forbids gatherings of five people or more, taking out or organizing procession, carrying firearms or weapons, wielding swords, using loudspeakers, and lighting fire in any open area within a 500-meter radius of the Porvorim Assembly Complex.
The opposition parties on Tuesday held a meeting to discuss their strategy for the session.
The meeting was attended by legislators from the Congress, Aam Aadmi Party (AAP), Revolutionary Goans Party and Goa Forward Party.
The ruling BJP has the support of 33 MLAs in the 40-member Goa Assembly.
“It is in the interest of Goa that all the seven MLAs from the opposition should work unitedly on the floor of the House. United Opposition is the flavour of the season,” Alemao told reporters.
He said that the opposition members have tabled several questions, some of them clubbed with each other, to “expose” the state government on the floor of the House.
