 "<b>My Budget:</b> Devi Shetty")
I cannot comment on that.
Is this a populist, please-all budget?
It is a very very disappointing Budget. There was nothing for the healthcare sector. Today, people in India have to buy healthcare like they buy food or power. What the government could have done is to at least reduce the cost of healthcare. But though every other sector got something in the Budget, there was absolutely no support for healthcare.
Will it help the economy, create jobs, restart stalled projects?
I can only talk about how the Budget will affect the sector I am involved in.
Will it help UPA win votes in the general elections?
No comments.
