Ex-Finance Minister describes AP budget as jugglery of figures

Vijayawada, Feb 28 (UNI) Terming the AP Budget 2025-26 as a jugglery of figures, former Finance Minister Buggana Rajendranath Reddy said the figures do not add up and there is no clarity on how the Super Six schemes would be implemented.

Speaking to the media here on Friday, he said there is no concord of figures between what the Finance and Agriculture Ministers said on Annadata Sukhibhava scheme which shows the yawning gap. The actual amount needed for implementing the Super Six schemes is far less than the actual number of beneficiaries. How this gap will be fulfilled is not mentioned and as is the practice of TDP the number of beneficiaries will be condensed.
