Letter Published in Gulf News UAE on 10 Feb 19 A budget for the people

The recent Indian interim budget covered the important aspects of farmer’s waiver and has assured the annual income for their families (“India’s latest budget is a repeat of old promises in new guises”, Gulf News, February 6). The income tax limit has been extended up to five lakhs and this is a great move by the government. It is also a relief measure for many citizens. As usual opposition parties are not happy with certain aspects, however, this is a budget for the people.
