Back Indirectly maintains vote bank

The Budget this time keep the common man in mind. Some of the good things the Finance Minister made for farmers such as waiving loan and reducing fertilisers price etc. It seems that, keeping in his mind the elections, he pleased the people and indirectly he maintains the vote bank. However, he did not mention much about improvement of education in terms of quality teaching. My strong appeal to the Finance Minister is to keep some amount for training teachers as they can improve anything.
