Budgetary allocation meant for ensuring justice to all: KCR

Hyderabad: Even as the Opposition tried to put the government in a fix for not allocating adequate funds to various sectors in the budget, Chief Minister K Chandrashekar Rao on Tuesday forcibly supported the budgetary allocations. He said “the allocations are apt and made to do justice to all sections of people.”
The Chief Minister stated that the government had come up with a suitable Budget for 2015-16 that was pegged at Rs 1,15,689 crore. The government would get about Rs 96,000 crore through State’s own revenues. Stating that no sector would be ignored, KCR clarified that the Budget was prepared with a complete comprehension and understanding of the revenue resources, expenditures, allocations and loans to be taken and Central allocations. KCR said, “We are aware of the budgetary ramifications and do justice to all sections.”
The Chief Minister asked the member to have confidence on the government which is focusing on welfare and development. Earlier, Finance Minister Eatala Rajender replied to the demands raised by the members of Congress, BJP and MIM. The Chief Minister clarified to the posers by the members that the government was committed to fulfill its promises of giving need-based priority to all sectors.
Earlier, the House witnessed pandemonium as the members of the Congress rapped the treasury benches for going back on its promise of reimbursing the fees. There was also chaos when the members demanded an explanation on unabated suicides by farmers in the State.
The Opposition member exerted pressure on the government on the key issues and shouted slogans and sought to dispel qualms on SC, ST Sub-Plan allocations and welfare of the poor and farmers. The Opposition members also tried their best to corner the government saying that the allocations made in the budget were not convincing as agriculture sector needed more funds. They also took exception to the government for not focusing on allocations to agriculture sector, education, health, irrigation and industries.
