Following the ritual, Government of India presented its budget with much fanfare, claiming it to be pro-poor, but the larger question that looms is whether it will really change the lives of the marginalized sections of the society. For a country like India which is ‘democratic, socialist, sovereign, republic’ working towards the ‘welfare’ of its citizens, one, either out of innocence or honest belief, tend to assume that the key areas of priority for the government will be social sector, health, education and livelihood. One might also assume that a substantial proportion of the budget shall be allocated to the aforementioned sectors.
