Sri Vijaya Puram, Feb 5: The Union Budget 2025-26 is a betrayal of the immediate and basic requirements of the people. Instead of addressing the problem of demand in the economy due to the lack of purchasing power in the hands of the people, mass unemployment and shrinking wages, the Modi government has, through the Budget, sought to stimulate the economy by giving concessions to the rich even as expenditures are cut. Instead of mobilizing resources by taxing the rich and the big corporate houses and expanding public investments that would help generate employment and ensure a minimum wage for people, it has chosen to do the opposite. The Budget promotes greater accumulation of wealth by promoting private investment, placing public assets at the service of the private sector and privatization of the power sector and so on.
