Jaitley hints at 'going beyond interim Budget': BJP Kisan leader says major announcement soon

New Delhi, Jan 18 (UNI) Facing onslaught of perceived anguish vis-a-vis agrarian distress, the Modi government is likely to announce a “very big decision” aimed at boosting the income of farmers soon, a key farmers' leader in the saffron party said here on Friday even as Finance Minister Arun Jaitley hinted at 'going beyond the interim budget'.
"....Nikat bhavishya mein bahut bara faisala kisano ke samridhi ke liye hone wala hae, yeh jankari mein apko dene chahata hoon (In immediate future, a big announcement is likely to be made for the welfare and progress and prosperity of farmers. I can inform you about this)," BJP farmers' wing president Virendra Singh Mast told reporters here.
He said the government has taken a number of decisions for the agriculture sector and rural development and a more important decision will shortly be announced.
