The Big Fight: Decoding Budget 2018

from The Big Fight Hosted by Vikram Chandra

After what was the Modi government's last full budget before the 2019 national elections, we debate whether Finance Minister Arun Jaitley has tried to strike a balance between the populism and prudence. The budget announced a major health programme dubbed 'Modicare', details of which are yet to be worked out, while other announcements included schemes for farmers, women and senior citizens. What is the impact that the budget will have on the stakeholders of the Indian economy? Is this a budget poised for growth or a budget aimed for votes?
