THIRUVANANTHAPURAM: Minister V Sivankutty has come out against Opposition Leader V D Satheesan, who has strongly criticised the budget. Sivankutty responded that it would be good for the opposition leader, who is raising criticism, to look into his own pocket. His response was through a Facebook post. Sivankutty added that the opposition leader who preaches day and night that the treasury is empty receives his allowances from the same treasury every month.Full text of the postIt would be good if the opposition leader, who is raising criticism, checks his own pocket. After the budget presentation, the opposition leader stated that cats have given birth in the empty treasury and that people do not believe the government’s announcements. The opposition leader, who preaches day and night that the treasury is empty, receives his allowances from the same treasury every month.If the treasury is so empty, where do these benefits you get come from? Every rupee allocated by the government for the development of the state and the welfare of the poor is spent with precise planning.Just like the benefits that the opposition leader receives, the government is ensuring pensions and other welfare schemes for the poor of this state. Those who say that the treasury is empty should not fail to see the high-tech systems in our public schools and the facilities available to children.The budget is not just words, but a precise road map for the progress of this state. The people are convinced of that.It is only the delusion of the opposition that they can spread negative news and mislead the people. One can be constructive in criticism, but it should not be at the expense of the same treasury from which he benefits.Let us move forward together, for the betterment of the land.
