The budget 2005-06 is similar to the last years budget. The approach and the structure are the same. The difference are among the figures.

The subsidy in the agriculture sector, which is one of the largest sectors in Bangladesh , is a positive side. The subsidy also given to the industrial sector in terms of tax holiday. But in this budget there is nothing said about inflation, how to tackle the corruption, and poverty alleviation.
