The CM said that in a major relief to the farmers of the state the state government has announced 25 per cent upward revision in the compensation for the crop loss to the farmers.
The common refrain among the Opposition political parties was that it is an anti-farmer and anti-people budget that will give rise to inflation and poverty in the country.
It was remarked that this budget has been made to promote the interest of the capitalists. The CPIM has also sought to point out that the central government is feeling proud in its endeavour to sell off national assets. Chakraborty said that though the BJP has no role in nation-building, it is going to be remembered as ones who sold the country.
