The first Budget of Modi 3.0 will be presented next week. The Budget expectations are running high among all sectors. The current environment for the capital markets is highly favorable, characterised by an overwhelmingly optimistic sentiment among investors. As always, politics and economics go hand in hand. In this edition of The Big Fight, we talk about the politics of the Budget and expectations that states have from Union Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman and why do non-BJP ruled states continue to speak about discrimination much before the budget is presented.
