It’s natural to present new budget by new govt: DyCM
Bengaluru, June 17: Deputy Chief Minister Dr G Parameshwar said that it is natural to present the new budget when the new government formed as each government will have its own programmes to announce.
Speaking to reporters here on Sunday, Parameshwar said that it is a tradition to announce the new programmes through the budget. A committee was constituted to prepare the Common Minimum Programmes of the coalition government and the committee would prepare the CMP within 10 days. Later, it would be discussed in the Coordination Committee and take a decision, he said.
Without preparing the common minimum programmes, it’s not possible to present the budget. First common minimum programmes should be prepared and then, financial allocation should be ensured. For a coalition government, minimum common programmes are base. Except them, no decision would be taken, he said.
All popular programmes of the previous government would continue in the coalition government. But he does not know in what context former chief minister Siddaramaiah denied the need for another budget. Whether the coalition government has to present the new budget or it incorporate all its programmes in the supplementary budget should be discussed only after preparing the common minimum programmes. Before this, no decision would be taken, he said.
Leaders from both the parties should restrain from speaking against the coalition government. Either Chief Minister HD Kumaraswamy or Deputy Chief Minister or Coordination Committee chairman Siddaramaiah should speak about the coalition government. If others speak about it, confusions would crop up, Dr Parameshwar said.
