In an instant reaction to the Union Budget 2025 presented in the parliament today, Comrade Provash Ghosh, General Secretary, SUCI(C) in a statement said on 01.02.2025: "As anticipated, the Union Budget 2025 is a customary clamouring of a surfeit of counterfeit claims of achievements of the BJP government through jugglery of figures and demagogic utterances. The Budget did not address any burning problem the common people are reeling under. The promises of job creation and measures to uplift economic condition of common people have been no different from proposals announced in the last budget also and one is aware how those proved to be a fiasco. The definite tilt towards more privatization like extensive use of Private-Public-Partnership (PPP) model, 100% FDI in insurance sector and continuation of asset monetization scheme meaning handing over government infrastructures to private hands is the cardinal aspect of the current budget. Specific mention about allotments towards healthcare, education, agriculture
