Parliament Watch: Economic Survey to Be Tabled in Lok Sabha and Rajya Sabha on Day Two of Parliament Budget Session

The Indian Parliament is witnessing the second day of the Budget Session today, with the presentation of the Economic Survey taking center stage. Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman is scheduled to table the Economic Survey first in the Lok Sabha, followed by its presentation in the Rajya Sabha. The document is a key policy statement that reviews the state of the national economy over the past year and outlines major trends, challenges, and policy priorities. The Budget Session formally began yesterday with the President’s address to the joint sitting of both Houses, setting the tone for upcoming legislative and economic discussions. The Economic Survey is seen as a roadmap that provides context for the Union Budget, which will be presented on February 1. Policymakers, economists, businesses, and investors closely track the survey for signals on growth outlook, fiscal discipline, inflation trends, and structural reforms. Today’s presentation is expected to spark discussions across party lines as Parliament gears up for detailed debates in the coming days. With the Union Budget just days away, the Economic Survey will play a crucial role in shaping expectations and national economic discourse.
