yes the role of parliament in budget making is insignificant because in india majority of population involves only middle class peoples. and also they are rising the prices on very important things like gas, rice and fuel etc.so due to this middle class peoples suffers a lot. and also these are minimum basic requirments need for any individual to survive.so its better to take decision to decrease the price for those things which is very important.

I will not completely disagree with what she is saying since its not just the budget for the country but it the budget of we the people, its our budget. but there is another angle to look at it, the budget is not actually given by only a politician , it is given out by a highly qualified person which is the finance minister and he is a person that delivers after doing a lot of things including cost benefit analysis and the after effect of the budget so i think it is wrong to say that the budget is given out by a politician and moreover according to me he is the right person, since he is delivering for the whole country , and 1 who has to do something for such a huge population, that person needs to be completely aware of all the cuurent issues, so he is the best person.

i am agree with the point what u mentioned here...but as far as these political leader is concerned this just by our votes and if they dont keep the budget low then it'll create a negative impact among them(peoples) and it leads to dissatisfaction too..most of indian are stiil from rural areas and they want to only cheaper goods to buy and not e expensive one ; so parliament should must be care of low budget

I also completly disagree with sridevi... she talk about middle class people that is right but at the time when budget is decided there is well enaugh educated person who take decision for budget they keep all people (LIG, Midle class, HIG) in there mind. If we talk about to involve genral people to give there views in budget, then I think our population over 1 bilion will take 10 years for decide 5 years budget that is non fisible. and as i put my view earlier that the person who decide ur budget is enaugh educated as he delivering the whole country if he is not capable 2 decide well in that case also we are wrong coz y we electe him. and there is also a solution ofthis problem is there is alot of IAS every where so he should consult with him.

There are 3 issues which are very important to be discussed here.
Is parliament really not playing any significant role?
If not than why?
If yes, than to what extent?
The structure of the parliamentary democracy suggests that the majority in the house can claim a goat a dog and a moon, the sun. The situation becomes worse when such a decision is being taken by a hung parliament having all the politicians with a motive of partisan politics.
This makes all the decision including budget taken in the parliament ineffective because those are taken in the larger interest of political parties that they belong to rather than the larger interest of the country. But,
there is another angle to this; sometimes this also leads to wise decision when a trade off between the interest of all constituent parties occur in a particular budgetary discussion.
2)Apart from above the other reason is tactical. The allocation is done on the basis of political influence of a particular politician int he central politics and not on the basis of requirement which leads to failure of budgeting.
3) Base budgeting instead of zero base budgeting is another reason why the budgeting goes hay way in India. The funding is done as if a particular scheme or project is the legacy of the country rather than on the basis of performance or development evaluation.
We have to recognise the development effort and budgeting done so far by Indian parliamentarians but it needs to be more rationalised in terms of social cost and benefit instead of vested political interest.
Thanks

Its good to know every aspects of Indian parliament in budget ,
but the fact is we are one who elect the government. They always shows responsibility in words but not in deeds. Management must think of future coming problems before it gets into it. Role of parliament in budget making will be always be significant .
