What did Rahul Gandhi say?
Leader of Opposition in Lok Sabha Rahul Gandhi on Sunday refused to comment on the Union Budget outside Parliament and said he would present his views in the House. When asked by journalists what he thinks about the budget? So Rahul Gandhi said, "I will put my point on the table of Parliament tomorrow."
The Congress leader was also accompanied by his sister Priyanka Gandhi. Both left the Parliament complex without answering further questions from the media. Later, the Congress MP took to social media platform X to list the main concerns which he said the budget failed to address.
'Ignorant of India's real troubles'
He wrote in the post, "Youth are out of jobs. Manufacturing is declining. Investors are withdrawing capital. Household savings are falling rapidly. Farmers are distressed. Oncoming global shocks - all this is ignored. A budget that refuses to reform is oblivious to India's real crises."
