Rajasthan ignored, says Congress; BJP welcomes Budget

The ruling BJP in Rajasthan on Tuesday welcomed the Budget, calling it progressive and inclusive, while the Opposition Congress accused the Centre of ignoring the state.

“This is a progressive Budget and the vision of 2047 is reflected in it. Innovative experiments have been done for the youth like providing internships in big companies. This is a budget made with inclusiveness and foresight for infrastructure, agriculture, youth and women,” senior BJP leader and former state president Satish Poonia said.

Congress state unit chief Govind Singh Dotasra, however, said the Budget was a disappointment for Rajasthan.

He also alleged that the Centre ignored Rajasthan in the Union Budget 2024-25 as a revenge for losing 11 Lok Sabha seats in the state.
