'I feel this is a mixed Budget'

Rita Singh

I feel this is a mixed Budget. On a macro level, I think there is a certain far-reaching meaning to the Budget.

I find that Mr Sinha has not touched some industries. He has not talked about steel, cement, tile industries or exports. How the government will revive exports has not been answered by the Budget.

One encouraging thing is the post-shipment of exports. The problems of infrastructure have not been met in the Budget. The government has not taken good decisions in the area of the core exports.
