Telangana BJP hails Union budget for bringing relief to middle class

Deccan Chronicle  

Hyderabad: The BJP State unit has hailed the 2025 Union budget presented by Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman as a game-changer, delivering significant economic reforms and much-needed relief to the Indian middle class. State BJP Spokesperson NV Subash, in a statement issued here on Saturday, emphasized that the budget reinforces the belief that “Modi hai to mumkin hai” and accelerates the vision of Viksit Bharat with renewed focus. “With widespread tax cuts across multiple sectors, this budget lays a clear roadmap for India’s economic growth, aiming to push GDP from below seven per cent to eight to nine per cent in the coming years,” he stated. Notably, it prioritizes the middle class, a segment close to Sitharaman’s own background, by addressing their long-pending demand for tax relief.
