Sitharaman’s Middle-Class Jibe Trolled

Sitharaman’s Middle-Class Jibe Trolled: As the Union Budget 2023-24 is around the corner Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman’s statement that she belongs to the middle class and understands the pain of that section of society has been thoroughly trolled.

“I can understand the pressures of the middle-class section of people. I identify myself with the middle class so I know. The government has ensured no new tax is imposed on them and launched metro services in 27 cities,” she said.

While many have criticised her stance as pretentious many have tweeted their dislike by citing her affidavit filed during elections. Sitharaman has declared her assets at 2,63,77,861, one Dr. Jaison Philip has said. “And, she draws a monthly salary of Rs 2 lakh. This is the middle class of New India. Ache Din has come to Indians, “he tweeted.

“So her policy is to make middle-class people to poor people. Madam said she eats avocado instead of onion. PM told he is the son of a poor mother but wearing a Rs 10 lakh dress,” Elangkavi tweeted.
