General budget will be presented on February 1

Let us tell you that the Union Budget 2022-23, will be presented on February 1, 2022. That is, the government will present its details. Significantly, the British tradition of presenting the budget at the end of February has now ended. In fact, on February 1, 2017, the then Finance Minister Arun Jaitley presented the budget for the first time. With the first presentation of the budget, the ministries are now given their funds allocated in the budget at the beginning of the financial year i.e. in April itself. That is, now the old tradition has been abolished.
