Commenting on the protest by Samajwadi Party leaders outside the State Assembly, he added, "When the government is ready to answer every question, such protests by the Samajwadi Party (SP) have become a part of their behaviour. It would have been better if they had raised the issues in the House."

On Sunday, Leader of Opposition Mata Prasad Pandey announced that the SP would raise concerns over rising communal tensions in the state, particularly the situation in Sambhal. Pandey stated that the party would hold the government accountable for attempts to disturb communal harmony and anticipated significant uproar in the session.

Deputy Commissioner of Police Raveena Tyagi said that the Anti-Terrorism Squad (ATS), Civil Police, Provincial Civil Services (PCS), and the Rapid Action Force (RAF) have been deployed around the Uttar Pradesh State Assembly, with CCTV cameras installed to ensure security.
