    Do you agree that Nirmala Sitharaman is the worst finance minister among all those holding such a position in any of the G-20 countries, not just in India?
  • The senior citizens are not benefitted by the Railway concession and the bank interest is not increased and we are 75+ 80 +
  • @sethutpr

  • @vinitraj8993
    For low and middle class, what is the role of this budget...really BJP is not doing anythings for low and middle class...😮
  • @franciskt4171
    Budget could have been more attractive by abolishing personal income tax, and filling that gap by reducing defence expenditure...😮
  • Mobile phones custom duties decreased to help Ambani and Jio Company, new jio phone in the queue for release
  • Indian Rupees are the cheapest.Before BJP came to power we were only getting 58 Rupees for one dollar, in just 10 years we can get 84 Rupees for the same dollar! This made lot of savings for Corporates, BJP leaders, people like Nirav Modi, Mehul Choksi, Ambani , Adhani etc besides the NRIs !
  • @Philosoper007
    BJP is waste 😂better elect some other party like Congress. Modi is zero for 15 years 😢
  • @user-on8qu7qg3r
    मणिपुर के पास 8 साल से बजट नहीं है. क्यों ? ​​मध्य प्रदेश में अंतरराज्यीय है लेकिन कोई एक्सप्रेस हाईवे नहीं है। मध्य प्रदेश में नये प्रोजेक्ट नहीं आते। असम, सौराष्ट्र और मध्य प्रदेश में एक्सप्रेस हाईवे नहीं हैं। क्यों ?
  • @RajanRaj-po9xr
    The result of coilation with socialist communist is not good from the history. So Manmohan Sing also can't do better in his 10y tenure. Do Modi have different plan, let's hope good??
  • @sunilsunny4951
    Good budget Amravati AP and Bihar each state get estimate Rs 150000 crore fund for development and supporting BJP government. Where as other state in south such as Karnataka, Kerala, Tamil Nadu and Pondicherry, Goa no fund allocated by the government. instead we should demand separate country from the south
