Pointing out that the Centre had recently introduced a vote-on-account budget, he said “Only if a full-scale budget is presented by the Government of India, we will be able to have a reasonable estimate of the funds that might be transferred to us. Hence, we have decided to introduce a full budget after the Central Government introduces its regular budget.”
Concluding his speech, Bhatti Vikramarka stated that the State budget will change the course of the State and make it a people-centered development and their welfare. He alleged that the previous government made the State bankrupt, with the burden of unplanned loans being a major challenge. “Yet, we will stand by the people with planned developmental goals, ” he said.
