Aizawl, March 21 (UNI) The Mizoram Pradesh Youth Congress Committee (MPYCC) have burned down a copy of Mizoram Budget 2007 here yesterday terming it as 'farmer unfriendly'.
MPYCC general secretary Lalrozara said, '' There is no hope for farmers in the 2007-08 budget, which suggested to hike the taxes. We believe the state's deficit will increase to Rs 3011.70 in 2008 from the present Rs 2808.21 crore.'' However, he said Chief Minister Zoramthanga had failed to keep his promise of making the state agriculturally self-sufficient within three years about eight years back.
The MPYCC also lamented over hike in taxes and absence of youth policies in the budget and stated the budget is a 'burden for the masses'.
Zoram Nationalist Party president Lalduhoma also criticised Mr Zoramthanga's budget.
