9.12 Lakh Crore UP Budget Sparks Political War of Words in Lucknow

A significant clash of ideologies has erupted in the UP assembly over the newly presented 9.12 lakh crore budget. Cabinet ministers have defended the allocations, with Sanjay Nishad claiming that every electoral promise has been addressed to benefit all sections of society. He questioned why the public ousted the Samajwadi Party if their previous budgets were so effective. On the other hand, SP MLA Rahul Lodhi cautioned voters against the ‘fake’ budget, asserting that no actual progress has been made on the ground. The ruling alliance maintains that this budget will foster youth employment and farmer self-reliance, while the opposition sees only disappointment.
