New Delhi, Feb 29: Union Finance Minister P.Chidambaram will present the General Budget for the fiscal 2008-09 in the Lok Sabha today and will also address a Post-Budget press conference here.
Chidambaram will be presenting his fifth Budget in a row and his seventh budget overall at 11 this morning.
After a widely accepted Rail Budget, it is likely that Chidambaram will announce a please-all budget.
Political analysts believe that as this would be the last full budget of the United Progressive Alliance (UPA) Government, Chidambaram will provide relief to almost all sections of society.
It is expected that farmers, who are passing through an agrarian crisis, would get relief in the General Budget 2008-09.
