NEW DELHI: BJP Bihar State President Sanjay Saraogi on Monday strongly defended the Union Budget 2026–27, calling it “historic” and accusing the opposition of deliberately ignoring the development push under Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s leadership, particularly for Bihar.
“In reality, the opposition has nothing to say. After independence, those who remained in power gave very little to Bihar. Today, under the leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, who has been presenting the budget continuously since 2014, the entire country is moving on the path of self-reliance, and Bihar is progressing steadily, ” Saraogi told IANS while reacting to the budget presented in Parliament.
He said the opposition was unable to acknowledge the infrastructure and development initiatives announced for the state.
