The political circles are abuzz as India prepares to see what the Centre has planned for the country ahead of the Lok Sabha elections 2024 when the fate of the Bharatiya Janata Party-led government will be decided.

Ahead of the presentation of the Budget 2024, MDMK MP Vaiko said the government will again try to hoodwink the people of India with its budget. Congress hoped the Central government will deliver on the promises and address the unemployment issue.

Congress MP Manickam Tagore said, "Hope that Nirmala Sitharaman delivers on the promises which they admitted. Instead of diverting from the real issues, let them address unemployment, the farmers' pain, MSME sector's problems and the price rise. We hope that the Interim Budget addresses these important issues, instead of only helping the friends like Adani and other business houses on whose pillars the Modi government is running."
