Union Budget visionary document to make India self-reliant: Amit Shah
It is a directionless Budget. It doesn’t have anything to offer to farmers, women, and the youth. This Budget says nothing about doubling farmers’ income and the smart city project: Chhattisgarh CM Bhupesh Baghel
There was focus on health infrastructure, mental health and other provisions in today’s Budget; thankful to PM Modi and Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman: Union MoS Health, Dr Bharti Pravin Pawar
One point to note is what FM said that last month’s GST collection is a record Rs 1.49 Lakh Crores. So, the economy is doing very well. I think the focus on growth – infrastructure growth – I’m very encouraged by the announcements: Union Minister Hardeep Singh Puri
The expectation that Budget will bring relief for the poor & common people, & taxpayers who are affected by rising inflation has not been fulfilled. Rising inequality has not been addressed. This Budget has brought no relief for small industries also: Congress leader Anand Sharma
Budget is only for the rich; has nothing for the poor. It’s Arjuna&Dronacharya’s budget, not Eklavya’s,(from Mahabharata). They also mentioned cryptocurrency, which doesn’t have any law, nor has it been discussed before;budget benefitting their friends: Mallikarjun Kharge, RS LoP
It’s a progressive Budget. Our Govt is concentrating on infrastructure, employment generation, future development. Good allocation made for the northeast, its culture & tourism: Union Minister G Kishan Reddy
Thank you PM Modi & FM Sitharaman for announcing launch of National Tele-mental Health Programme in Budget. With a network of 23 tele-mental health Centres of Excellence under NIMHANS, it’ll ensure quality mental health counseling for all: Union Health Minister Mansukh Mandaviya
The Budget says that virtual assets like cryptos will not be banned but treated as another asset class and attract a tax of 30% on capital gains. It has gone for a regulation, which is a good thing for a new asset class like crypto: NITI Aayog CEO Amitabh Kant
This is a progressive Budget; benefits all sections especially farmers, women, youth. Important announcements such as MSP, measures to double farmers income, 60 lakh jobs for youth,measures for women empowerment such as Mission Shakti will boost our economy: UP CM Yogi Adityanath
