New Delhi: Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman achieved a Parliamentary milestone this morning by presenting her seventh consecutive Budget, a feat previously achieved only by C.D. Deshmukh 68 years ago.
Both Deshmukh, who presented Budgets between 1951 and 1956, and Nirmala Sitharaman have presented six full Budgets and an interim Budget each. Two of Deshmukh’s Budgets were presented before the Constitution of the first Lok Sabha in 1952.
