PM Modi slams criticizers of Union Budget calls them ‘professional pessimists’

A day after Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman presented the Union Budget, Prime Minister Narendra Modi called those criticizing his government's vision of a 5 trillion dollar economy ‘professional pessimists’. “There are certain people who are saying why the government has set such a target (5 trillion dollar economy), what is the need, why all of this is being done. These people can be called professional pessimists,” said PM Modi, while inaugurating a membership drive for the BJP in his constituency Varanasi.
