| Union Budget aimed to benefit only rich: Partap | | | Early Times Report
JAMMU, Feb 3: Dogra Youth Unified criticized the Union Budget 2022 for its lack of initiatives to increase employment opportunities or reduce inflation. This budget was aimed only to benefit the rich.
Partap Singh Jamwal said that the Budget has zero for common people, who are getting crushed by unemployment and inflation. Government is lost in big words signifying nothing. He said that people had high expectations from the budget especially during the COVID pandemic. The budget disappointed the people. There is nothing in the budget for the general public. It has nothing to offer to reduce inflation.
Partap also pointed out that the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) government's promise to double farmers' income had also come to naught. "Finance Minister proudly announces Rs 2,37LCr as MSP on wheat and paddy directly credited to farmers accounts. This is less than the MSP payments in 2020-21, which was Rs 2.478LCr. Criminal assault on farmers continues. He said overall this was an anti-people Budget, especially as subsidies on food, fertilizers and petroleum had been slashed.
He also said that the Budget is pro-rich. "Diamonds are this government's best friend. For the rest including farmers, middle class, daily earners and unemployed it has no friendliness." |
