Budget anti-people, a big bluff: Mamata

Describing the Union Budget presented by Finance Minister Arun Jaitley as a "big bluff" and "anti-people", West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee on Thursday said she found it "very disappointing".

"The BJP-led government in Delhi is unfit to govern. It is a budget which is neither here, nor there," the Trinamool Congress supremo told reporters here.

Questioning the proposals for farmers mentioned in the budget, Banerjee said: "There is no mechanism. Has any fund been allotted for farmers? No."

"This budget is a big bluff. It is anti-people. I personally found it very disappointing," she said.
