Congress’s Rahul Gandhi today called the Union Budget 2025 a “band aid for bullet wounds” and said the government was suffering from a “bankruptcy of ideas”.
In a post on X, formerly Twitter, he wrote, “Amid global uncertainty, solving our economic crisis demanded a paradigm shift. But this government is bankrupt of ideas”.
A band-aid for bullet wounds!
Amid global uncertainty, solving our economic crisis demanded a paradigm shift.
Mr Gandhi’s party has taken a swipe at the government over its budget announcements, and the schemes awarded to Bihar. The other pillar of the NDA, Andhra Pradesh, was “cruelly ignored”, the party said.
With elections due in Bihar later this year, Union Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman has earmarked a chunk of schemes for Bihar, including setting up of a Makhana Board, financial support for western Kosi canal and support for enhancing the capacity of IIT Patna.
