Budget 2024: PM Narendra Modi Pledges to Return and Deliver Full Budget After Lok Sabha Elections

Prime Minister Narendra Modi, on Wednesday, January 31, vowed to return for a third term and deliver a full-fledged budget after the Lok Sabha Elections 2024. "Just before the election, we don't submit a full budget; this we will do after a new government is elected. This interim budget is a guideline for us. I am hopeful that the country will touch new heights of prosperity. Development for everyone is taking place. This journey will continue with your blessings. Ram Ram," the Prime Minister said. The last session before Lok Sabha polls, expected to be held in April-May this year, is to provide a total of eight sittings spread over a period of 10 days.

The Prime Minister said the Budget session, commenced today with President Droupadi Murmu's address, is a festival of Nari Shakti. "And today the budget session is starting under the guidance of Indian President Droupadi Murmu, and tomorrow the interim budget by Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman ji is in a way a festival of Nari Shakti," he said.
