Congress leader Priyanka Gandhi Vadra criticised Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman's statement about India’s economic recovery. Gandhi questioned Sitharaman’s claim that there is no inflation or unemployment. "I don't know which planet she is living on," she said. The Trinamool Congress also attacked Sitharaman, saying she must be "living under a rock" to ignore economic struggles. Sitharaman defended the budget, stating it focuses on growth and capital expenditure. She also announced a full income tax rebate for those earning less than ₹12 lakh per year. The debate over India’s economy continues in Parliament.
