Congress MP Shashi Tharoor, speaking on the expectations from the Budget, said, "The Economic Survey presents good economic growth, but a problem for young people in this country is whether the growth will be accompanied by jobs. Jobless growth does not help anyone. We are anxious to see what kind of schemes they have in mind. In Kerala, with elections coming up, we are keen to see what benefits the Central government might give us"
Defence Minister Rajnath Singh. The Budget is likely to increase the share for defence yet again, especially following Operation Sindoor
