Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman posed with her team on Sunday ahead of the Union Budget.

Sitharaman will deliver her promised budget on Monday like no other that is expected to provide relief to the pandemic-hit common man as well as focus more on driving the economic recovery through higher spending on healthcare, infrastructure and defence amid rising tensions with neighbors.
