Haryana Assembly Monsoon Session 2026: Congress to Corner BJP Government Over Rising Crime and Tax Burden

The Congress party is gearing up to take on the BJP-led Haryana government during the upcoming Assembly session, with law and order, tax hikes, and employee regularisation set to dominate the proceedings. Here's a complete breakdown of the issues Congress plans to raise and what it means for the session ahead.

Congress to Raise Law and Order and Tax Concerns

Congress is preparing to submit a Calling Attention Motion in the Assembly to seek answers from the government on the breakdown of law and order, rising organised crime, and tax hikes linked to property tax and collector rates. The move signals that the Opposition intends to use the session to press the government on both public safety and the financial burden on residents caused by revised tax rates.

This is not the first time such issues have come up in the Haryana Assembly law and order and rising crime have been recurring themes raised by the Congress in past sessions as well, making it a consistent point of political contention between the two parties.

HKRN Employees' Regularisation Protest

Alongside the Assembly-level issues, former Haryana Chief Minister Bhupinder Singh Hooda announced that Congress will hold a major demonstration on August 19 in Panchkula, demanding the regularisation of Haryana Kaushal Rozgar Nigam (HKRN) employees.

This protest is expected to run alongside the party's broader push during the Assembly session, combining street-level pressure with legislative questioning.

Guest Teachers' Regularisation Issue

Hooda also raised the issue of guest teachers, pointing out that despite a court ruling in favour of the teachers, the government has yet to act on it. He said the government should immediately regularise their services and extend them the same benefits available to permanent employees, adding that the government appears to be ignoring the court's verdict instead of complying with it.

Why This Matters

With the Assembly session bringing together multiple flashpoints — crime, taxation, and long-pending employee demands — the coming days are likely to see sharp exchanges between the Congress and the BJP government. The Calling Attention Motion, if taken up, would require the government to formally respond on record about the state's law and order situation and the rationale behind the recent tax revisions, giving the issue more weight than a routine political statement.

Conclusion

The Haryana Assembly's upcoming session looks set to be a charged one, with the Congress combining a formal legislative motion on crime and taxes with street protests over HKRN employee regularisation and continued pressure on the guest teachers' issue.
