ABP News hosted a summit on Wednesday to discuss the 2024-25 budget. Union Minister Chirag Paswan praised the budget in the first session. The second session featured Congress’s Supriya Shrinate and BJP’s Sudhanshu Trivedi. Trivedi highlighted that the current growth rate is 7.2%, up from 2% during the Congress tenure, and noted decreased inflation under the BJP. He emphasized the government's success in fostering unprecedented growth during the COVID-19 pandemic and reducing internet costs significantly, which supported work-from-home and online education. In response, Shrinate criticized the budget as a 'faux budget,' arguing it fails to address core issues and predicting the same problems will persist in the 2025 budget.
