'B' in BJP's Budget stands for 'betrayal', alleges Cong President Kharge
Congress president Mallikarjun Kharge on Thursday accused the Modi government of indulging in "tokenism" by bringing in "so-called employment-linked incentive schemes", and said the 'B' in the Union Budget stands for "betrayal".
Kharge alleged that the Modi government's Budget has mere internships forced upon the industry with no long-term solution in sight.
He said that a week into the 'Kursi Bachao Budget', the academia and the industry awaits clarity from the Modi government on its "tokenism" regarding the "so-called 'employment-linked incentive' schemes".
"Crores of youth want a permanent solution to their plight of Jobs, but Narendra Modi ji's government bitterly deceives them by not even giving a temporary solution!" he alleged.
"We ask two questions to the Modi government on these sham schemes -? When will the Modi government provide details of the schemes?" he said.
Neither the youth nor the industry which is to be nudged, according to Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman,
