As the Uttar Pradesh assembly session began on Friday, state minister Suresh Kumar Khanna said the session's days will be decided by the business, adding that the government is ready to discuss the bill and any other issues.

Furthermore, Khanna also held a discussion on 'Vande Mataram' in the assembly, as necessary, stating that the new generation needs to be taught the significance of Vande Mataram and how the freedom fighters embraced it.

"The days are decided according to the business. The government is ready to discuss the bill or any other issues. The new generation needs to be taught the significance of Vande Mataram and how the freedom fighters embraced it. A discussion on Vande Mataram is important," Suresh Kumar Khanna told ANI.

Earlier today, Samajwadi Party MLA Mukesh Verma protested over the codeine cough syrup issue in Uttar Pradesh. He said that higher-ups are involved in this case and questioned who is responsible for the lives of children. The MLA expressed concern over the codeine cough syrups being sold in the market.

"Every limit is crossed now; they are selling poison under the guise of cough syrup. Many high-profile and wealthy individuals are involved in this nexus."

MLA wore a protest-themed outfit. He also asked if those involved in the case would be getting their house bulldozed.

"When are they sending bulldozers to their houses? Innocent toddlers have lost their lives. Who will be held responsible for them?" he stated.

Another SP MLA Brajesh Yadav also protested against the cough syrup case by cycling to the Assembly. He noted that the case is drawing widespread concern, and the BJP's distribution of toxic syrup is also being discussed.

"In our state and across the country, it is being discussed that the BJP distributed toxic cough syrup, which killed the children of the poor."

He states that the people involved in the case profited and crossed the border. The MLA said that the BJP government is helping them out and called for their immediate detention.

"People earned money and fled abroad. Meanwhile, the BJP Govt is protecting them. So, the government should immediately arrest such people and jail them..."

UP CM Yogi Adityanath also shared details about the case while addressing the media on Friday. He said that under the leadership of the Uttar Pradesh Police and Food Safety and Drug Administration (FSDA), action was initiated under the NDPS Act. (ANI)
