Articles 35 A and 370 were not part of the Constitution – Finance Minister

Posted by :- Bikesh Tiwari

Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman said that Articles 35 A and 370 were not part of the Constitution. It was simply added to the Constitution saying, “This is also part of the Constitution.” An amendment was never legally brought to add this. Those who roam around today holding the Constitution in their hands should be told whether this was not a betrayal.

Gave more money to states than last financial year – Finance Minister

Posted by :- Bikesh Tiwari

An atmosphere of doubt is being created regarding the federal structure of India. This is not a healthy tradition. Right from the beginning we have been saying one country, one mark, one constitution. The Congress party has been rolling out the red carpet for the separatists. There was a lot of talk in this House regarding cooperative federalism. I want to tell that Rs 22 lakh 90 thousand 182 crores have been allocated to the states which is more than the last financial year. In the budget speech, nothing was given to two states and nothing was given to the remaining states, this was propaganda spread by Indie Alliance.

This amount is Rs 8000 crore more than last year. For comparison, let me tell you that in 2013-14, the last year of the UPA government, only Rs 30,000 crore was allocated for agriculture. He also said that he had promised this House in 2021-22 that he would work to bring the fiscal deficit below 4.5% by 2025-26. Fiscal deficit had reached 9.2% in 2021.
