Bihar Chief Minister and Janata Dal (United) leader Nitish Kumar on Tuesday praised the Union Budget as “balanced budget”, while his party JD(U)’s parliamentary board chairman Upendra Kushwaha described it as “disappointing”.
“For the last two years, the country’s development has been affected due to COVID-19 pandemic and to bring out the country from the adverse situation, the Centre through its Budget, has taken several steps to accelerate the speed of development, which is praiseworthy. I congratulate the Union Government for presenting a balanced budget,” said Mr. Kumar while adding, “the Union Government’s decision to build infrastructure on a large scale in the country is also laudable”.
