You speak of new middle class, but how do you treat current middle class: INC MP Imran Pratapgarhi
INC MP Imran Pratapgarhi says that instead of providing houses over people’s heads, the centre is bulldozing homes as well as democracy.
How is it ‘s abka saath. sabka vikas,’ when you have taken away the Maulana Azad fellowship, taken away from the Minority Affairs department, he asks.
He highlights that the Finance Minister mentioned that some trains are being converted to Vande Bharat trains, but questions why nothing is being said about railway security, mentioning the Balasore accident. He also says that the condition of stations and railway coaches is poor.
You make films tax-free but don’t waive examination for students, he says. Prime Minister Modi speaks about the ‘new’ middle class, but how do you treat the current middle class, he asks?
He says that the youth is angry, and no provisions have been made for them in the interim budget.
There is no place for foodgrains for the poor in this Amrit Kaal budget, he says, asserting that it will be the last budget of this government.
