The Lok Sabha also passed the Railway Budget.The bill was passed with 12 minor amendments.The passage of the bill effectively brought to an end the budgetary process that started with the budget speech by the Finance Minister P. Chidambaram on February 28.The bill will now go to the Rajya Sabha and then to the president for his assent. | ||
