Bhubaneswar: Welcoming the first Union Budget post-COVID, Chief Minister Naveen Patnaik said allocation for health, especially vaccination to fight coronavirus is a big step.
Reacting to Budget presented by Union Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman, the Chief Minister expressed happiness over the Centre’s focus on Mission Shakti in the Union Budget.
