Days ahead of the commencement of assembly elections in Uttar Pradesh, Congress' Priyanka Gandhi Vadra has picked up on the 'UP type' comment of Union Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman made during the first briefing after the presentation of the budget.
During the briefing when asked about Rahul Gandhi's 'zero-sum' comment on the budget, the Finance Minister had paved the way for Minister of State of Finance Pankaj Chaudhary to respond. Chaudhary referring to the reporter had said, "You say that Rahul Gandhi did not understand the budget, it is actually true. Nirmala Sitharaman Ji will answer hereafter, all I got to say is that the Budget is going to reap benefits to all, and the same will be evident in some time."
The response of the Finance Minister has caught the attention of the Opposition. Priyanka Gandhi Vadra, who is leading Congress in Uttar Pradesh, took to her official Twitter handle to slam Nirmala Sitharaman for the comment. While outlining that nothing fruitful has come out from the budget for Uttar Pradesh, she added, "But what was the need of insulting the people of UP in this manner?"
