While Tamil Nadu Chief Minister M. Karunanidhi Wednesday said the 2007-08 union budget "had kept the interests of the majority of the people in mind", but former chief minister J. Jayalalitha said it had ignored the interests of farmers.
Karunanidhi said the budget had announced several steps to reduce the prices of essential commodities and welcomed the Rs.500 million-sanction to the Tamil Nadu Agricultural University.Jayalalitha, on the other hand, said the budget had "totally ignored the problem of farmers and also failed to propose any anti-inflationary measures".
