"Mere rhetoric not enough...": BSP chief Mayawati on Union Budget
Feb 01, 2026
"In the budget presented by the Central Government in the country's Parliament today, regarding various schemes, projects, promises, and assurances, the future outcomes of these seem to suggest that while their names are grand and lofty, it would be better if their manifestations on the ground are not diminished or insignificant. Therefore, for the welfare of all sections of society, mere rhetoric is not enough; implementation with genuine intent is also essential," Mayawati wrote.
