Though she did not mention which development schemes of the previous BJP government were 'good' schemes in the eyes of Hemant Soren government, Governor Murmu read out the text of her official speech stating that the Soren government will try to reach every home to serve the people.

Two, Soren presented Rs 4,210 supplementary budget for the current financial year 2019-2020 on the floor of the house. It is set to be cleared by the house on the concluding day of the session on Wednesday.
