New Delhi, Feb 25 (UNI) Describing the Railway Budget as ''Yatri'' (passenger) friendly, BJP president Amit Shah today patted Railway Minister Suresh Prabhu's back, saying it was an all ''inclusive budget'' which lived up to the expectations of every section of the society.
''I congratulate Suresh ji and Prime Minister Narendra Modi on behalf of BJP and countrymen for the Rail budget, which is for commoners and poor people,'' Mr Shah told mediapersons at party’s office in his first reaction to the Budget.
