This was Sitharaman’s fifth straight budget and the last budget presented in BJP’s reign before the 2024 general elections. The Finance Minister has made sure to include the colour red in her outfits while presenting the budget all these years.

This time, she seems to have worn a traditionally designed Korvai silk saree with a small temple-canopy border combined with a sleek zari lining alongside a black border. Sitharaman keeps her pallu pinned in multiple folds and styles it with a matching half-sleeved blouse. The simple look echoes power, and strength and represents the Indian culture in its most traditional and local form.

NIRMALA SITHARAMAN’S FIFTH UNION BUDGET
Meanwhile, it is going to be a tight-rope walk for Sitharaman to stay between staying fiscally prudent and general public expectations of lower taxes and a wider social security net while representing budget. Expectations are huge from the budget this year with middle-class seeking relief from income-tax and entrepreneurs wanting a jump in the financial incentives for local manufacturing. This Union Budget (April 2023 to March 2024) is also the first normal budget after the COVID-19 shock and amid global geopolitical developments.
