Cong condemns opposition parties’ criticism on budget

Legislative Council whip Rudraraju Padmaraju on Saturday condemned the opposition charges that the State Budget 2012-13 presented in the assembly was nothing but ‘game of numbers’.

Talking to media persons at Congress Legislature Party Office, he said that the Finance Minister Anam Ramnarayan Reddy has judiciously allocated funds for the all sectors particularly for the welfare of poor and backward classes. He rubbished the Opposition charges as baseless and far from truth.

He said that unable to digest the popularity of budget, Telugu Desam president N Chandrababu Naidu has launched a malicious campaign against Chief Minister Kiran Kumar Reddy Government. At least now, Naidu should change his attitude and help the government by giving constructive suggestions on policy matters. (INN)
