On the inaugural day of Rajasthan's Assembly monsoon session, the Congress staged a protest against the state government's restriction on outsiders entering government schools. Rather than addressing the issue within the House, Congress leaders opted to protest outside. Led by Leader of Opposition Tikaram Julie, Congress MLAs and workers visited a Jaipur school for hearing-impaired children, where they faced denial of entry.
Following this, Julie and party members marched outside the Assembly, accusing the BJP government of attempting to conceal the poor state of government schools. They vowed to continue opposing the government both inside and outside the House, planning to inspect schools statewide and expose their deficiencies. BJP leaders, however, criticized the Congress for avoiding the Assembly proceedings, alleging that the Opposition was absent to evade singing the full version of Vande Mataram.
Assembly Speaker Vasudev Devnani expressed disappointment over the Congress MLAs' absence, while Parliamentary Affairs Minister Jogaram Patel deemed the opposition's conduct incompatible with democratic norms.
