Not a disaster - but not enough, either - Akash Prakash, Business Standard
The Union Budget presented yesterday was, to my mind, a tame affair, along expected lines, and without any concrete policy breakthroughs. First, the good news: there has been less of a lurch towards populism than was feared.

But not in the Congress's scheme of things, which, in the final reckoning, is a matter of perpetuating the Nehru-Gandhi family's hegemony.
