Parliament Convenes Day After Union Budget Presentation
New Delhi:
The Parliament has convened today a day after the Union budget 2021 was presented by Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman. The Finance Minister announced the budget, aimed at reviving an economy badly hit by the coronavirus pandemic, on Monday. Ms Sitharaman, in her third budget, unveiled a spending plan focused on healthcare and infrastructure.
The Opposition is likely to question the government on the budget during the Parliament session today. The opposition has described it as a “let down like never before” that was meant to “deceive” people. Prime Minister Narendra Modi has asserted that villages and farmers are at the heart of the Union Budget and that it has put a lot of emphasis on strengthening the farming sector and increasing farmers’ income while making an allocation to further empower agriculture mandis.
