Ahead of the Budget Session in the Parliament, Prime Minister Narendra Modi said that the upcoming decade is very important for the bright future of India. He added that a "golden opportunity" has come before the nation to fulfil the dreams seen by the freedom fighters.
He further added that this decade should be fully utilised.
PM Modi said Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman had to give four-five mini-budgets in the form of packages in 2020 and expressed confidence that the upcoming budget would also be seen as part of that series. "Probably for the first time in India's history, the finance minister had to give four-five mini budgets in 2020 in the form of different packages," he said.
"Therefore, I am confident that this budget will also be seen as part of the series of the four-five mini budgets," Modi said.
He added, "I believe that we will not lag behind in making our contribution to the fulfilment of people's aspiration."
The prime minister expressed confidence that MPs will not shy away from contributing to make full use of Parliament for fulfilling people's aspirations.
