On the very significant day of Union Budget 2023, a display of women power was seen at the Rashtrapati Bhavan in the national capital as Union Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman called on President Droupadi Murmu ahead of presenting the Union Budget 2023-24 in Parliament on Wednesday.

Sitharaman was accompanied by MoS Dr Bhagwat Kishanrao Karad, MoS Pankaj Chaudhary, and other senior officials of the Ministry of Finance.

Sitharaman is slated to present the last full budget at 11 am on Wednesday, ahead of the 2024 General Elections as well as polls in key states such as Karnataka, Rajasthan, Tripura, Nagaland and Meghalaya.

She reached the Finance Ministry ahead of the Budget 2023 presentation and also met President Murmu on her way there. The Union Cabinet met thereafter to clear the Budget.

Before the actual presentation, the Cabinet headed by Prime Minister Narendra Modi will approve the Budget for the fiscal year 2023-24 (April 2023 to March 2024).

While traditionally, copies of the Budget are brought to the Parliament complex before the Finance Minister arrives, this year no document has been printed following the COVID-19 protocol.

Since taking charge in 2019, the Finance Minister has donned significant statement-making handloom sarees each year while presenting the Union Budget. She has always been vocal about promoting handloom saris. In 2019, she expressed her love for Indian textiles.
