CHANDIGARH: The Punjab Congress dismissed the state budget as a bunch of lies. Punjab Congress president Amrinder Singh Raja Warring said the government has betrayed the people of Punjab as not a single promise that the AAP made before elections has been fulfilled in the budget.
"There is no mention of providing Rs 1,000 per month to all women above the age of 18 in Punjab. Similarly, there is no clarity on the 300 units of free power. Other than just a token announcement, the finance minister did not elaborate as to from where the government will get money and there is no budgetary allocation made for the scheme," he said.
