With the nationwide lockdown to curb the spread of coronavirus taking a severe toll on the Indian economy, Chhattisgarh Chief Minister Bhupesh Baghel has slammed the Centre's Rs 20 lakh crore economic package, saying there's nothing new in it and the country will not benefit from it.

In an exclusive interview with The Quint's Editorial Director Sanjay Pugalia, the Chhattisgarh CM said, "(Finance Minister) Nirmala Sitharaman has rescheduled the Budget and put it in front of the country. No section has got anything much from this... There's nothing new (in this package), there's nothing which is outside the Budget, everything comes under the Budget. Only the attire has been changed. The country will not benefit from this."
