New Delhi, Aug 05: On Monday, the Lok Sabha approved the budget estimates for expenditure in the demands for grants for various ministries through the application of a guillotine. This guillotine was implemented after the House discussed the demands for grants of four specific ministries: Railways, Education, Health, and Fisheries.
Additionally, the House passed the Appropriation Bill 2024, which authorizes the government to withdraw certain sums from the Consolidated Fund of India for the financial year 2024-25.
The term "guillotine" in this context means that the demands for grants for the ministries, on which it is applied, are considered approved without further discussion.
