“We are firm and firmly insisting that the union budget must focus on bridging this gap …
the union budget must only focus on increasing money in the hands of the poor.
The union budget must pay attention to how urban poverty rises a lot of folding and rural poverty in comparison has risen, “He said.
Shinnate also demanded that the government institutionalize the gross economic management index to find out how wrong the Indian economy.
The Chief of Congress Spokesman Randeep Surjewala accused “the mod to only for rich people! Now before us – ‘poorer poor people and’ humo do, Hamare DO.” “Hitting the poor-medium-class, the Modi government is a rich government,” Surjewala’s alleged.
Shinate said the government did not even recognize the economic situation and increase poverty.
He said the first Oxfam report and now the ICE-360 survey, which has been carried out by the People’s research on the economic economy of India, has expressly stated that the inquiry and profound gap between rich and poor people in this country just widened.
According to this report, he said, for more than 15 crore household income has been dipped by 53 percent because compared to 2016 and income for the lower middle income group has dropped 32 percent, and for the middle income group with nine per year.

So at an area of ​​60 percent of India today get less than what produces five years back and one survey after another shows this.
“So there must be truth about how the income distribution widened,” he said.
“It is also important to show here that 20 percent for whom the income has been halved under the mode government, the same population sees their income surge in 183 percent under UPA power from 2005 to 2015, when we raise 27 crore people out of poverty.
“20 percent richly richer than 39 percent …
so there really is a deep problem in the economy, because Sarkar’s coat-boot, people who only make policies for rich and heel wells only focus on their wealth,” spokesman Congress accused.
He said the government that day, which will present the union budget, must accept that there are very large income differences and there is an increase in income inequality in this country “and if you won’t bridge it, we will face very large consequences”.
“It will have an impact on social equity, this will have a result of crime, this will have the impact of all types, this is AK An impact on dividend demographics C, which you have changed into a demographic disaster, “alleged Congress leader.
