Budget on Feb 1; 2nd part of Session  from Mar 8 to Apr 8

Parliament will be convened for Budget Session on January 29, starting with President’s address and Budget to be presented on February 1. The Cabinet Committee on Political Affairs (CCPA) on Tuesday recommended convening Budget Session in two parts. The first part of the Session will be from January 29 to February 15 and the second part will be from March 8 to April 8.

The forthcoming Budget Session is expected to have very heavy legislative business as the Winter Session was cancelled while the Monsoon Session was curtailed. The Covid-19 protocols will be maintained strictly like the previous Session ended in September, said, officials.

They said that both Houses will be working four hours daily on separate schedules. Earlier the Rajya Sabha worked in the morning time and the Lok Sabha in the afternoon.

This is the first budget of the Modi Government after the year when the economy suffered a major shock due to Covid-19 pandemic. Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman has already concluded pre-Budget consultations with the captains of industry.
