She said, "In formal and informal engagements, most often we come across language, which is not intended to be bad, but is very patronizing and doesn't recognize implicit gender bias.
It is said in humour but that reinforces the mentality.
We should not encourage this kind of language, let alone using it.
It is said - 'choodi pahen ke baitha hu kya' to say that 'do you think I don't have courage?'.

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."

Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman revised tax slabs in the new regime, expanding the first taxable bracket from ₹3-6 lakh to ₹3-7 lakh, while maintaining the 5% tax rate. Standard deductions were increased, but details weren't provided. No changes were made for incomes below ₹3 lakh, the ₹12-15 lakh slab, or incomes above ₹15 lakh. These adjustments aim to benefit the middle class by potentially reducing their tax burden. However, the full impact depends on individual financial situations and requires further analysis.
