My Budget: Ramdev, Yoga Guru

Are you happy with the budget?
No

Best thing about the budget?
Organic farming has been given a boost. Almost 40 per cent of food that rotted because of inadequate storage will get saved to some extent. The Rs 300-crore for neutra-cereals is a positive step. Direct subsidies to the poor is also good.

The worst thing?
The steps outlined for tackling corruption and black money offer no solution.

Does the budget address your fears for India?
Almost 80 per cent of the country’s money is stashed abroad. The government cannot ignore its responsibility to bring it back.

If you were Finance Minister, what would you have done?
I would have brought back all the black money from abroad. Also, there should be free health and education for all, and farmers should get water and power round the clock.
