It has raised serious questions about his scholarship. The budget didn&#8217;t look remote. It did not see the poor and impoverished communities, women, children, Dalits. <\/p>\n<p>In a way, the budget is irresponsible, airy and full. It made me sad. He insulted the people&#8217;s mandate. I would like to draw serious attention to this, Mr. Finance Minister. He also said that the budget is discriminatory.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Kathmandu.
