In response to Delhi CM's jab, Leader of Opposition in the Legislative Assembly of the National Capital Atishi said that the government has admitted that they have not conducted analysis before making the budget.
“Is it a good thing that they are saying that they are forming a Budget to review the situation of Delhi’s financial condition? I think this means that the Delhi government itself is admitting that they have not done any analysis to make this Budget," Atishi said.
