Jabalpur Reacts to MP Budget: "Fallen Behind Ujjain, No Tax Relief"
- •Madhya Pradesh's Mohan government presented its third budget of 4.38 lakh crore rupees, focusing on the poor, youth, farmers, women, infrastructure, and industrialization.
- •Jabalpur residents express disappointment, stating no new taxes are 'God's grace' but not true relief amidst inflation.
- •Concerns raised that Jabalpur is lagging behind even Ujjain, with development concentrated in Indore and Bhopal.
- •Youth feel neglected, with only 800 crore rupees allocated for youth, education, and employment out of the massive budget.
- •Citizens hoped for petrol and diesel price reductions, but the budget offered no such relief for common people.
