Mumbai: Maharashtra Samajwadi Party leader and MLA Abu Asim Azmi has raised a serious allegation of neglecting minorities in the budget, protesting against the injustice done to minorities in the budget. On the 12th day of the Maharashtra Assembly Budget Session 2026, the discriminatory budget of the Mahayoti government was exposed outside the House. Not even 0.5% of the budget was allocated for the 12% Muslim population of Maharashtra. Is there no place for minorities in the huge budget of Rs 7.69 lakh crore? This is not just a budget but a ‘blueprint’ to deprive a large section of the population of development. The slogan of “Sabka Saath, Sabka Vikas” has proved to be completely hollow here. Azmi said that they will continue this fight for rights from the House to the streets. Today, Maharashtra Samajwadi Party leader and MLA Abu Asim Azmi protested on the steps of Vidhan Bhavan against the injustice done to minorities and their deprivation from the budget.
