Amid ruckus by opposition Congress and discussions for four hours, the first supplementary budget of Madhya Pradesh BJP government worth Rs 22224 crore was passed in the State Assembly here on Wednesday evening.
Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman said the indexation provision was not brought for revenue considerations but for simplification of the system only. The government had yielded to public requests on the issue, she said.
Taxation proposals approved, and a committee on pension system for government employees proposed.
