Patiala MP Preneet Kaur on Tuesday said in the Lok Sabha that the Modi government had made announcements that were not backed by the funds allocations.
Participating in the discussion on Budget, Preneet expressed serious concern on the outlay on defence, more particularly on defence acquisitions. “There is a need for quick upgrade of the defence capabilities. The total outlay on defence capital outlays is just adjusted for inflation, means we are spending less than even last year even while the threat perception presented to the nation just a few months ago was an entirely different story,” she said.
