India Budget #2018

Some say “Better late than never”, while others believe “What’s the point when everything is lost?”. This budget by NDA puts them in people’s minds to make them feel that they are important, but is it too little too late? Common man had seen insurmountable difficulties in the name of #GST and #DeMo. Farmers were battling hard to survive in this market. Education and health care were over looked so far. Has the Govt. finally reacted?

To a great extent he was the primary force behind upliftment of the financially and socially backward caste groups. The Reservation factor was introduced and that helped these people a lot in getting equal Education and Jobs in the society.
