Union Budget 2024 LIVE Updates:  Budget focused on posturing than action, `copy-paste govt` borrows from Nyay Patra, says Congress

The Congress on Tuesday slammed the Union Budget as being "more focused on posturing than action" and claimed that the "copy-paste government" has borrowed heavily from the party`s manifesto for the Lok Sabha polls. The opposition party also claimed that the government had "tacitly" admitted that "mass unemployment is a national crisis", and said the budget has "political compulsions written all over it". Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman presented the Budget for 2024-25, her 7th straight presentation, surpassing the record of former prime minister Morarji Desai. This was the first Budget during Prime Minister Narendra Modi-led government`s third term in office.

I didn`t hear anything about the key issues facing the common man.
