Ignored, bled yet again: Telanagana ministers slam Union Budget, say 'injustice to state'
Sunday, 2 February 2025 () Ministers in Telangana express disappointment over the Union Budget's lack of allocations for key state projects, including the Musi rejuvenation, Metro expansion, and irrigation initiatives. They accuse the Modi government of political vendetta, ignoring Telangana's demands despite electing eight BJP MPs. Concerns were raised about undermining states' fiscal autonomy and disregarding water conservation efforts.
As the Budget 2025 approaches, all eyes are on Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman’s potential income tax relief for salaried taxpayers. Will there be changes to tax slabs or new exemptions for NPS?..
