Indian Budget 2009-2010 Coverage
This is Finance Minister Pranab Mukherjee's fourth regular Budget. He presented three Budgets as finance minister in the Indira Gandhi government. But this would perhaps be his toughest job as he has to fight recessionary pressures and at the same time meet the fiscal deficit reduction targets.
Mukherjee points out that the focus of the government would be aam aadmi (the common man) with more employment generation schemes on the anvil.
With the Union Budget to be presented on July 3, the finance minister has started having discussions with senior ministry officials, industrialists and economists to chalk out a strategy to revive the economy.
