NEW DELHI, JULY 23 :  The Congress on Tuesday slammed the Union Budget by calling it ‘discriminatory’ and said that as a protest, all its Chief Ministers will boycott the upcoming NITI Aayog meeting to be held on July 27.

Congress general secretary KC Venugopal on his social media handle X said, “The Union Budget presented today was extremely discriminatory and dangerous, which completely goes against the principles of federalism and fairness that the Union Government must follow”.

He said, “In protest, INC CMs will be boycotting the NITI Aayog meeting scheduled for 27th July”.
“This government’s attitude is completely antithetical to Constitutional principles. We will not participate in an event that is solely designed to hide the true, discriminatory colours of this regime,” Venugopal said.(UNI)
