Akhilesh flays UP Budget, says it is ‘directionless’

Lucknow: Terming the Uttar Pradesh Budget as “directionless”, Samajwadi Party chief Akhilesh Yadav on Tuesday said it neither offers solutions to present problems nor shows way for the future.

“This was the seventh Budget of the government. Every time, it says the Budget presented is historic and the biggest. Even after that many parameters of the state have not improved. The government should also go through the Niti Aayog 2023-24 ranking of Uttar Pradesh,” he said.

Flaying the Budget proposals, he said “It neither has a solution to present problems nor a way for the future.

The double engine government, which promised doubling of farmers’ income, is also

not there.”
