Modi government has now run out of new ideas – Mallikarjun Kharge on the Budget

(Fast Mail):-- On the Budget, Congress President and Leader of Opposition in the Rajya Sabha Mallikarjun Kharge said, the Modi government has now run out of new ideas.

Kharge said,”This budget, instead of providing solutions to India's serious economic, social, and political challenges, raises even more questions”.

“There is nothing in it for the poor. No solution has been given to control inflation, nor any positive suggestion, nor any concrete step”,he said.

The Economic Survey has stated that trade uncertainty is a major challenge for India, but this problem has been almost completely ignored in the budget. Similarly, there is no plan to deal with the falling value of the rupee.

The congress leader said that the budget shows no intention of reviving consumer demand. The decline in domestic savings and the increasing burden of personal debt have also been ignored.There is also no solution to the widespread unemployment crisis among educated youth,Kharge stated.

The Finance Commission's recommendations require further study, but they do not appear to provide any relief to state governments grappling with serious financial crises,he said.

Kharge alleged that the inequality has now increased beyond even the levels during the British Raj, but there is not even a mention of it in the budget. Nor has any provision been made for assistance to Scheduled Castes, Scheduled Tribes, Other Backward Classes, Economically Weaker Sections, or minorities,he added.
