Former Congress president Rahul Gandhi slammed the Union Budget 2020-21 tabled by Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman. “Maybe this was the longest Budget speech in history but it had nothing, it was hollow,” Gandhi said while leaving the Parliament after attending the Budget session in Lok Sabha. “The main issue facing [the country] is unemployment. I didn’t see any strategic idea that would help our youth get jobs. I saw tactical stuff but no central idea. It describes government well, a lot of repetition, rambling- it is the mindset of the government, all talk, but nothing happening.”
