Back in saddle in signs of Prime Minister Narendra Modi preferring continuity in policy, Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman is likely to lay out the government's economic agenda when she presents the first annual budget of Modi 3.0 next month.
Her task is cut out as she will have to look at measures to boost growth without hurting inflation as well as look for resources to meet the coalition government's compulsion.
The economic agenda would include steps to fast-rack reforms to make India a USD 5-trillion economy in near future and turn the country into a 'Viksit Bharat' by 2047.
