The first message read as follows:
The budget is a ray of hope to the housewife burdened by rising prices. It places utmost importance to women empowerment and girls' education - PM Narendra Modi
Ummm....shouldn't it read 'It places utmost importance on' or 'It gives utmost importance to' instead? I am also not sure why a housewife (BTW, the politically correct word for this is 'homemaker' now!) has been singled out as the victim of inflation. We are all in the same boat.....that's rocking from side to side and leaking at the same time :-( I am yet to read all the budget related analysis so wonder what reference to "girls' education" is.
The second message came soon thereafter:
Budget14: Relief to taxpayer Slab raised to 2.5 lac For Senior citizens - 3 lac Saving limit increased to 1.5 lac Home loan interest benefit raised to 2 lac
Succinctly put! But a little punctuation would have gone a long way in making the message more legible. For a moment there are I thought that the tax slab has been raised to 2.5 lac for senior citizens and wondered what has changed.
All said and done though, it felt good to receive messages from Ministry of Information and Broadcasting of India. I just hope they will keep at it now that the budget has been delivered.
