‘The budget should be of some use,’ says former CM Akhilesh Yadav on the Uttar Pradesh state budget

On the Uttar Pradesh state budget, former CM and Samajwadi Party leader Akhilesh Yadav says, “The BJP government claims every time that this will be the biggest budget. The budget should be of some use. I hope this budget will be about doubling farmers’ income, employment to youth, and the security of the people in the state. 90% population which I have defined, what are they going to get? Till now all the budgets of Delhi and Uttar Pradesh are centred around the top 10% population.”
