Budget 2025 Live Streaming: Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman will present the Union Budget 2025 for the financial year 2025-26 on Saturday. Sitharaman’s record eighth consecutive budget is expected to contain measures to shore up weakening economic growth and ease the burden on the middle class struggling with high prices and stagnant wage growth while being fiscally prudent.
Prime Minister Narendra Modi, on Friday, hinted at new initiatives for the poor, middle class, and women, as he laid out his government’s vision a day before the Union Budget was presented in Parliament.
Modi began his customary pre-session remarks to the media by invoking Lakshmi, the goddess associated with wealth and prosperity, and said he prayed for special blessings for the poor and middle class.
