While the UPA government was all praises for the Rail Budget presented by Pawan Kumar Bansal, the Opposition slammed it as an anti-BJP states Budget, with Gopinath Munde even going to the extent of calling it a "Rae Bareli budget".
"There is nothing for Gujarat, Maharashtra, Chhattisgarh and Bihar in the Budget," said the BJP.
Samajwadi Party chief Mulayam Singh Yadav called it "the worst and the most anti-people budget in many years".

"I have no problems with Amethi-Rae Bareli getting anything, but why discriminate against other districts in the state. Not a single line in the Etawah, Mainpuri, Etah, Kannauj belt!
