Kerala Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan said that Kerala was totally neglected in the union budget.

Various pressing needs like support for rubber sector and institutions like AIIMS were not considered by the centre in this budget. The budget that did not contain any welfare measures for the ordinary people or for Kerala reflects BJP's approach, said Vijayan.He also said that even as the centre aims at making India a developed nation by 2047, no steps to strengthen states to achieve this were being taken. Demand for enhancing borrowing limit of the state was also ignored.
