Nothing for common man in Union Budget: Ponguleti

Congres MLC Ponguleti Sudhakar Reddy on Thursday criticised the Union Budget and said that it had nothing to offer for the common man.

Speaking to media persons at the Congress Legislature Party office here, Ponguleti said that Finance Minister Arun Jaiteley's budget was aimed at benefitting Ambanis and other corporators and not the common man. He said that the common people were shown big dreams before the elections. However, the common men were complete ignored after the elections and no relief was given to them in the Union Budget.

Addressing a separate press conference, former MLA Anam Vivekananda Reddy also criticised the Union Budget.
