Describing the Union budget as illusionary and a statement of "fudged figures," Jammu and Kashmir National Panthers Party (JKNPP) today held a protest in the city.
"The Union Budget as illusionary, hollow and a statement of fudged figures, which has outrightly disregarded Jammu and Kashmir," JKNPP Chairman Harsh Dev Singh said.
Singh said that the budget had nothing for a common man.
He said that the budgetary announcement to reorganise agricultural policy to double the farmer's income by 2022 had only created an illusion in the minds of the farming community.
