AAP Rajya Sabha MP Swati Maliwal said the interim Budget for 2024-2025 on Thursday has dashed the expectations of the general public since no tax concession was offered.

"This time too the expectations of the general public were dashed. No tax concession, no reduction in petrol and diesel prices, no talk of reducing inflation. Women's safety and upliftment only on paper," Maliwal said in a post on X in Hindi.
