the budget was “nothing but a jugglery of figures” : Shaktisinh Gohil

Senior Congress MLA Shaktisinh Gohil said the budget was “nothing but a jugglery of figures”.

“The allocation for Narmada canal (water) is not adequate. People of Kutch are still waiting for Narmada water…Budget offers no solution for it. Government wants to build 31 new colleges with allocation of Rs 2 crore. How will it be possible?” he said.

Gujarat Congress president Bharatsinh Solanki said the BJP government had betrayed the people. “Government has breached the trust of people by presenting a budget which will ultimately increase people’s hardships. Crude oil price has dipped drastically in international market, but government has refused to reduce VAT. This budget has created a huge disappointment among people,” said Solanki.
