: “The allocation of Rs. 50 crore for a permanent venue for the IFFK was very appropriate… The setting up of a Museum at Sivagiri would be a great step forward,” said CPI(M) Polit Bureau member M.A. Baby.

“The budget has set apart huge funds for libraries. All A grade libraries would get broadband connections. This would help rural libraries to grow as secular public spaces.” “The setting up of cultural complexes in all the 14 districts in the name of important persons is a very significant step.”
