Today's Video Focus: India Union minister Piyush Goyal presented the election year Interim Budget
in parliament today and announced major relief for farmers and
individual taxpayers. With the Lok Sabha election just months away, the
government kept the budget focussed on immediate relief such as easing
income tax rules, favourable loan terms for small businesses, farm loan
waiver and even direct cash transfers to small farmers. The government
said it will send Rs 6,000 to small farmers directly into their bank
accounts in a scheme that will be funded 100 per cent by the centre. The
programme will cost Rs 75,000 crore.
