The Adityanath-led BJP government presented a Rs 5.5-lakh crore budget for 2021-22 in the Assembly with a target of making Uttar Pradesh self-reliant.

The three MPs from Punjab have been sitting on a dharna at Jantar Mantar in Delhi for two months now demanding the repeal of the three farm laws.

Niramala Sithraman also said that income tax return filers increased to 6.48 crore in 2020 from 3.31 crore in 2014.

Opposition leaders of 18 parties have decided to boycott President's address in solidarity with farmers protesting at Delhi’s borders against the three farm laws.

'I am confident that this budget will also be seen as part of series of the four-five mini budgets,' said PM Modi
