Budget 2024: Know Why S Jaishankar Called Modi 3.0 budget exceptionally important | Details

On the Union Budget, EAM Dr S Jaishankar says "The budget presented by FM Nirmala Sitharaman is a very exceptionally important budget as it is the first budget of the third term of the NDA government. The budget is presented at a time when the global situation is very volatile, uncertain, difficult in many ways. What the budget seeks to do is to maintain growth, manage and reduce inflation to ensure that our national capabilities grow and that India's rise and growth are not affected by a negative international environment. So this is a kind of global perspective, really global context in a way of how the budget should be seen." #foreignministeronbudget2024 #sjaishankaronbudget2024 #budget2024-2025 #oneindia #oneindianews ~HT.97~ED.346~ED.194~
