DR. AMAR SINGH initiating said: The country is passing through its worst phase. But, our economy and GDP were going down even before the pandemic. Covid has not only damaged the economy but also dealt a severe blow to the health and employment. Digital divide in education in the country has been exposed. It is very easy to say that education will be provided through computers but who has the laptops and which house has internet in the villages? Inequality is rising in the country but the government is not ready to accept this. As per the data of 2017, 73 per cent of the wealth created in the country has gone into the hands of one per cent people. In which direction are you leading the country to? Why are you increasing the prices of petrol and diesel frequently? You did not collect 1.5 lakh crore of corporate tax in 2019. Your government is giving relief only and only to the rich people. You are centralizing the taxes. You have increased cess and surcharges so much that they constitute almost 24 per cent of revenue. You gained from this and the States have suffered losses because you don‟t share them with the States. Aren't the States a part of the country? You have given 2.3 lakh crore rupees and 25 per cent GST compensation less out of the share of States in 2020-21. I have objection to the custom duty raised by the government. PSUs contribute 1.5 lakh crore rupees to the government as dividend. If the government will sell all the PSUs then from where will this amount be compensated? I appreciate that the government has allocated Rs. 35 thousand crore for the Covid vaccine. The government has decreased the allocation for Pradhan Mantri Kishan Yojana by Rs. 10,000 crore. Last year, you had allocated more than one lakh crore rupees for MNREGA which I appreciate. But, why have you reduced it by 38,000 crore rupees this year? The MNREGA budget shouldn‟t be reduced instead urban MNREGA Scheme should be started to provide employment and MPLAD scheme should be restored through which we used to help people. I request the government to release the pending GST compensation of 8,253 crore rupees to Punjab which is due from April to January. You have reduced the RDF. Fatehgarh Sahib is an historic place which should be made a part of international tourist circuit. Raikot district in my constituency is a very backward district and the government should provide a rail link there. The budget should be increased to remove unemployment. SHRI RAJENDRA AGRAWAL: This Government is committed and dedicated to the poor, crores of youth of the country and mothers and sisters desiring honour and respect. As a result of Jan Dhan Yojana, if one rupee is sent by the government then exactly one rupee is credited in the account. Today, a common poor man is sure that if government will send him 100 rupees then he will definitely get 100 rupees. The maximum brunt of corruption is borne by the poor. A transparent system will lead the society and the country forward and the poor will be uplifted. Our government has brought many legislations like demonetization, GST, Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code etc. to provide corruption free governance. Our foreign exchange reserve is touching a record high of 580 billion dollar when the entire world is reeling under the corona pandemic. It shows what the standard of our global leader is. We have improved the income tax slabs. We have enacted labour laws and farm laws. I do not want to say anything about farm laws as a thorough discussion on it has already taken place. But the common farmers believe that the farm laws have turned out to be beneficial for them in the country and these farm laws are in favour of the farmers. The number of tax-payers was 3.31 crore in 2014 which has today increased to 6.48 crore. The Congress Party, from the very beginning, had been trying to target its vote bank while formulating its policies, but the hon. Prime Minister has demolished the vote bank politics with his cardinal principle of Sabka Saath, Sabka Vikas aur Sabka Vishwas. The North-Eastern region used to be neglected, but we have taken care of it and now work is going on there in the fast track mode. The hon. Prime Minister pays attention to each and every aspect. If it comes to healthcare sector; he knows very well how to ensure that sanitation, yoga, availability of affordable medicines and to open Jan Aushadhi Kendras to this end and the presence of Ayushmaan Bharat should be therein. Our goal is quite clear that we have to make this country self-reliant and glorious. The Government of India has identified more than 41,000 start-ups which will be instrumental in creating more than five lakh employment opportunities. The Government promotes self employment sector and it has taken various measures for this purpose. At last, I would like to say this much only that this Finance Bill is not only for this year but is also intended to lay a foundation for the Atmanirbhar Bharat before the 100th year of our independence is completed. SHRI P.V. MIDHUN REDDY: At the outset, I would like to congratulate our hon. Finance Minister for presenting the Budget during this pandemic time when the world is going through difficult times. We should also appreciate that to combat recession, she has struck a fine balance between fiscal caution and Government spending. Before I go to my observations on the Budget, I would like to talk about the issues of my State. Polavaram is a very-very important project for our State. Polavaram project is slated to be completed next year. So, we would request the Government to act fast on this and approve the revised cost estimate. So far as the issue of medical colleges is concerned, if you see the pro rata figures, compared to other States, the number of medical colleges in Andhra Pradesh is very-very less.
