West Bengal Congress leader Adhir Ranjan Chowdhury on has dubbed the rail budget 2016 a great disappointment for Bengal.
Lashing out at Suresh Prabhu’s budget the leader
said, “Except uttering the name of Kharagpur, there is nothing here for
West Bengal.”
“The rail minister spoke of a huge investment of
8.5 Lakh crores, but where is the investment. It is just a exaggerated
figure.” He added.
Although the budget seemed to have maintained not
too soft neither too hard moves, it managed to address several issues
and is dubbed by many as people friendly.
Adhir said that the budget skipped he core issue
like ‘safety, security and capacity’. It also failed to address the
problem of generating revenue.
Despite the allegation made by the Congress leader
experts believe that West Bengal will benefit from the proposed
dedicated freight corridor from Kharagpur and the proposed metro
expansion project.
The budget is also lauded by Prime Minister Modi
who congratulated the railway minister and team railway. Home Minister
Rajnath Singh dubbed the budget all inclusive.
The rail budget also introduced four innovative
trains and there is no hike in fares. Special facilities for women and
senior citizens are also the plus points of this budget.
