Subject: Common Man Budget
Dear FM, Acorrding to your vision the present budget is a COMMON MAN BASED. Can you first of all define to whom you are describing as COMMON MAN? Your Budget proposals and contribution towards rurals of India. But one thing we are not understanding is your approach towards salaries class, which is step motherly treatment. we have been made scape-goat for all taxes, whichever you charge directly or indirectly we have been exploited. Take a situation, where in we are actually spending more on Transportation, Education and our lively hood, but on that also we are paying Direct and Indirect tax, our concern is atleast you should give us a benefit of direct tax. Your specified amount is even not sufficent to run a house, and remaing is taken away in the form of tax, then where the question of savings as we earn to only MOUTHS. so it is really disgusting to the salaries class,. Our request is why can't you catch hold of tax evading corporates, executives and Departmental people who are laundering the money to save the tax, it is evedinet if you attended the assessment conducted by the Departments.

Yours Sincerely,
Sampath P
