💨 Abstract

Congress president Mallikarjun Kharge criticized the Union Budget, stating that it is an attempt to "dupe" the people as the country grapples with inflation and unemployment. He highlighted the government's collection of income tax from the middle class and the new exemption for those earning up to Rs 12 lakh. Kharge also criticized the lack of roadmaps for farmer income, education, health, and job creation in the budget.
