Union Budget 2015-16

A CHALLENGE


The Finance Minister of India, Arun Jaitley is set to present the union finance budget 2015-16 on 28th February 2015. The expectations from BJP’s first full fledged budget since coming to power last summer, are high on both sides i.e. the BJP and the country. The Modi-Shah election juggernaut was stopped this month by Kejriwal and it is being perceived as the end of BJP’s honeymoon period. Understandably, BJP would want a budget that could please one and all, a populist budget. It will help its Bihar and West Bengal campaign later this year and renew the energy of the party that doesn’t want to return to its ‘Ram Mandir politics’ after making ‘Development’ its tagline.
