New Delhi, 1st Feb. The Congress party has accused Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman and Prime Minister Minister Narendra Modi of betraying the country’s salaried and middle classes by not announcing any relief measures for them in the Union Budget 2022-23.
Congress general secretary and chief spokesperson Randeep Surjewala said that the salaried classes and the middle classes have been affected due to pay cuts and high inflation during the pandemic.
“India’s salaried class and middle class were hoping for relief in times of pandemic, all round pay cuts and back breaking inflation. FM and PM have again deeply disappointed them in Direct Tax measures,” Randeep Surjewala said on Twitter.
In his initial remarks on the Union Budget, Surjewala said, “This is a betrayal of India’s Salaried Class and Middle Class. #Budget2022,” he said.
These comments of Congress’s chief spokesperson Randeep Surjewala came just after the finance minister Nirmala Sitharaman presented the union budget for 2022-23 in Parliament.
