Mysuru: Chief Minister Siddaramaiah has strongly criticised the Union Budget 2024-25, calling it a "disappointing" exercise lacking foresight and accusing the Narendra Modi Government of continuing its neglect of Karnataka.
Addressing a press conference at his residence in Mysuru last evening, Siddaramaiah said he could not listen to Union Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman’s entire budget speech but had reviewed its key highlights. "From the perspective of the country — especially Karnataka — this budget is extremely disappointing. It lacks any vision for the future," he remarked.
