No big bang budget ahead: Jaitley to NDTV

New Delhi, Jan 5 (IBNS) Union Finance Minister Arun Jaitley on Monday said in a TV interview not to expect a big bang Union Budget.

"I am not in the business of a 9 PM show that I will have a big bang budget and get the TRPs. Governance is a 365 day business," he told NDTV in an interview.

"A government who is working on governance 365 days a year, the budget is a one-day affair. Yet it is very important. India must be in a hurry, only then the obstructionists can be put on the back foot," he said.

"We have done more reforms in 7 months that the UPA government did in its whole tenure," he claimed in the interview.
