| The date of presentation of Budget was still to be finalised, a top finance ministry official said. But the official said the government was also bringing a vote on account as the possibility of passing the Budget before the end of this financial year looked bleak. |
| When contacted, Indian Industries Association (IIA) Uttaranchal President Pankaj Gupta said there was no need to bring a vote on account this time. "We are expecting a full-fledged Budget," Gupta said. |
| Meanwhile, the main opposition BJP today criticised the N D Tiwari government for bringing consecutively fourth year vote-on-account instead of full fledged budget. |
