<h1>Shiv Sena (UBT) Slams State Budget as 'Bogus' for Ignoring Promised Welfare Measures and Favoring Ruling Party Interests</h1> Shiv Sena (UBT) president criticized the state Budget presented by the Mahayuti government, calling it 'completely bogus' for failing to fulfill welfare promises. The Budget allocated Rs 36,000 crore for the Mukhyamantri Majhi Laadki Bahin scheme but omitted the promised stipend increase for women. Concerns were raised about a Rs 1,100 crore bank guarantee for sugar mills linked to the ruling party, while Rs 16,000 crore dues to the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation remain unpaid. Additionally, the construction of a metro line connecting Mumbai airports was questioned, suggesting the Adani group should fund it instead of using taxpayer money.
