However, the information will be available in the app only after the budget is presented in the parliament. Meanwhile, due to the Corona situation in the country, various measures have been taken in this year's budget session.

No 'halwa' ceremony this year, says government. 'Halwa' ceremoney was traditionally held 10 days ahed of the presentation of budget every year.
