New Delhi: India is gearing up for the Interim Budget 2024 which will be presented before the Parliament tomorrow, February 1, 2024 by the Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman. Ahead of the Interim Budget on Feb 1, the Budget Session of the Parliament has commenced today, with the Joint Address of the President of India, Droupadi Murmu to both Houses of the Parliament. Before the President’s Address and beginning of the Parliament Budget Session, Prime Minister Narendra Modi addressed the media; PM Modi not only mocked the Opposition for creating a ruckus in the Parliament, he also hinted at winning the Lok Sabha Elections 2024 for the third consecutive term.
As mentioned earlier, Prime Minister Narendra Modi addressed the media outside of the Parliament Building, ahead of the Budget Session of the Parliament 2024. The Prime Minister attacked the Opposition MPs for their unruly behaviour and chaos; asked them to ‘introspect’. PM Modi said that this Parliament Session is nothing but an opportunity to ‘repent’ and leave positive footprints – he asked MPs to do the best they can.
During his customary address to the media, Prime Minister Narendra Modi said that following the usual practice of not presenting the Full Budget ahead of the elections, the government is presenting, only the Interim Budget. However, PM Modi has said, ‘Once the new government is made, we will bring the Full Budget’ which means that the Prime Minister has dropped a hint at winning the upcoming polls.
The Prime Minister has also said that on the first day of the Budget Session of the Parliament, the President of India Droupadi Murmu will be addressing both the Houses of the Parliament jointly; tomorrow, on Feb 1, the Interim Budget 2024 will be presented by Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman; passing of the Nari Shakti Vandan Adhiniyam (Women’s Reservation Bill) at the end of the first session convened in the New Parliament Building and the mass women representation in the January 26 Republic Day Parade – these acts are like festivals of ‘Nari Shakti’ (Women Empowerment).
The Budget Session has commenced with the joint address of President Droupadi Murmu. Speaking about the Interim Budget 2024 Presentation, the annual ‘Halwa Ceremony’ has been conducted and everyone is eagerly waiting to see what the Budget has for them, when presented by FM Nirmala Sitharaman.
