Union Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman will be presenting the Union Budget 2021 on February 1. This is going to be India's first ever paperless Union Budget, after Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman launched the Budget mobile app a few days ago.
Unlike the past, the voluminous Budget documents will not be printed this year, following the COVID-19 protocol and will instead be distributed electronically to the Members of Parliament (MPs). The economy is still reeling from the effects of COVID-19. The budget comes against the backdrop of recession with growth in two consecutive quarters in the red.

Delhi violence turns agri woes into law and order issue; distracts from real grievances of farmers
This isn't the first time in recent history that a citizen-initiated movement has had to face a credibility crisis after a bout of violence. The anti-Citizenship Amendment Act protests in February 2020 faced a similar predicament when riots broke out in Delhi

Capital anarchy: Farmers deviating from peaceful protest route severely discredits their movement


Capital anarchy: Farmers deviating from peaceful protest route severely discredits their movement
January 26, 2021, 10:16 PM IST
Times of India’s Edit Page team comprises senior journalists with wide-ranging interests who debate and opine on the news and issues of the day.
In what can perhaps be described as India’s Capitol insurrection moment protesting farmers upstaged the traditional Republic Day parade by deviating from the pre-designated routes of their tractor rally, violently breaking through police barricades, clashing with police personnel, and audaciously storming Red Fort – a symbol of the Indian Republic. They also vandalised buses and police vehicles as they entered Delhi in large numbers. That such chaos unfolded on Republic Day, when the capital is supposed to be a high security zone, is a monumental security lapse that’s comparable to the breach of the US Capitol early this year.
