New Delhi, Mar 1 (IBNS) Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal on Tuesday slammed the BJP government at the centre for presenting a poor budget which is against the common people.

In his tweet, Kejriwal wrote: "Spoke to many people. They are v angry. EPF/PPF withdrawals by aam admi taxed, loans of rich waived, black money holders get amnesty."

He had earlier accused the government of cheating middle class people.

In a tweet on Monday, the Delhi chief minister wrote: "Nothing for middle class in this budget. Modi govt cheated middle class which votes for them."

Earlier, his deputy Manish Sisodia too voiced dissent at the Union Budget, presented on Monday by Union Finance Minister Arun Jaitley.

Sisodia said, "My 1st reaction to union budget : financial injustice to Delhi continues - no change in share in central taxes. Will speak in detail later."
