Sudip Bandyopadhyaya, Trinamool Congress leader
"The Budget will strengthen only the BJP, not the country. The jute industry, on which 2 crore livelihoods depend, has been ignored. Bengal has been ignored, and its people are facing the consequences of not voting for the BJP. All the announcements made for women and senior citizens are just token. Also, the issue of black money has not been raised at all."
