New Delhi: Following the announcement of Budget 2022 by Finance Minister Nirmala Sitaraman on Tuesday, opposition leaders reacted to it. Many of them such as Rahul Gandhi, Mamata Banerjee, and Akhilesh Yadav criticised, terming it against the common citizens. This year, the budget was also presented in a paperless form like last year.

Rahul posted a tweet criticising the budget. He said that it had nothing for the salaried class, middle class, poor, youth, farmers, and MSMEs.

West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee said that the budget has zero for common people, who are getting crushed by unemployment and inflation.

She termed the budget, ”A Pegasus spin budget.”

Samajwadi Chief Akhilesh Yadav attacked the BJP government saying, ‘Another budget of BJP will cause more burden on people’s pocket.’

Delhi CM said that the budget has nothing for common citizens. The government did nothing to reduce inflation.

Congress leader Shashi Tharoor said, ”We are concerned about lack of substance for common citizens in Budget.”

General Secretary of the Communist Party of India, Sitaram Yechury raised a question on the budget — Budget for whom? ”The richest 10% Indian owns 75% of the country’s wealth. Bottom 60% own less than 5%,” added Yechury.
