Responding to the debate on Part A of the Budget in the Rajya Sabha on Friday, she. said the Budget is aimed at making the country self-reliant and providing stimulus for medium and long-term growth.
“Wealth creators, taxpayers and honest citizens will have to be respected and that certainly is in consistence with the policy of Jansangh and of BJP, all of which have maintained continuously that entrepreneurs in India have always shown their strength and achieved such glories, and we should respect them, rather than constrict them to all kinds of holding and regulations and providing of licence,” she said.
