New Delhi: BJP MP KJ Alphons on Thursday said that the contribution of industrialists and corporate houses that are creating jobs and making large investments in the country must be recognised.
Tearing into opposition's allegations that rich are growing richer and that government policies were benefitting corporate houses, Alphons hit back saying all key economic indicators showed that the Modi-government had steered the country to the path of growth, amid the pandemic.
Participating in the general discussion on Budget, the BJP member informed the Rajya Sabha that the government has spent money in building large infrastructure, toilets, hospitals, roads, houses, and in the process also created jobs. On the opposition's jibes on industrialists, Alphons argued that while every country honours people who create jobs, the opposition believes in shaming them.
