The budget session of the Uttar Pradesh Legislative Assembly is set to commence on February 9 in Lucknow, where Governor Anandiben Patel will address both houses and present a summary of the government's achievements. The session will kick off with the national anthem 'Vande Mataram', and immediately after, the state government plans to introduce its first-ever economic survey in the assembly. The government plans to present the budget for the fiscal year 2026-27 on February 11, with the entire session scheduled to last until February 20. Opposition parties are expected to challenge the government on issues such as unemployment and women's safety during this period.

CM Yogi Adityanath has stated that Uttar Pradesh has transformed from being a 'bottleneck state' to a 'breakthrough state'. The economic survey to be presented today will include data on per capita income, job creation, and financial management. The government claims that Uttar Pradesh has been a 'revenue surplus state' for the past five years, reflecting its improved economic status. The ruling party emphasized its readiness to discuss all issues and urged the opposition to choose dialogue over disrupting the assembly proceedings, hoping for a constructive session despite the anticipated tensions between the ruling and opposition parties.
