As the nation eagerly awaits the Union Budget 2024, World Is One News (WION), India’s only international news channel, continues to captivate audiences with its India Budget: Election Edition – The Most Comprehensive Coverage, providing viewers with exclusive and comprehensive analysis.
WION’s extended coverage is currently in progress from 5th January through to 4th February 2024, featuring in-depth insights, exclusive interviews, and expert opinions.
Throughout January, the pre-budget programming has been focusing on Domestic Expectations, Decoding the Budget, Budget FACT-O-PEDIA, Technology & Plans, what it means for Indian Markets & Foreign Investors, and Broad Expectations from both domestic and global perspectives.
On Budget Day (1st February 2024), WION also looks towards live broadcasts from CII in Delhi with Vikram Chandra, besides providing in-depth news bulletins from the newsroom with expert guests.
This special Union Budget programming coverage encompasses highlights of top announcements, the implications for the broader economy and the world, changes in pricing, and a focus on the effect of the election on the budget.
Speaking on the special budget programming, Madhu Soman, Chief Business Officer, WION, highlighted, “While we understand this year’s interim budget will be more or less a vote on account with no major policy announcements likely, it doesn’t dilute the significance of the day. India is one of the fastest growing economies in the world and its stock market became the fourth largest last week. WION will be unspooling the event to the best of our ability so that the nuances of this annual exercise are explained in the simplest of terms to our dedicated viewers across platforms.”
Furthermore, between February 1st and 4th, the period following the budget, WION will showcase various programs.
This will include one to two-minute segments and explanatory content, encompassing budget analysis, insights gleaned from pre-budget coverage, comments from India Inc., analysts, and economists.
The coverage will also feature significant announcements and a strategic preview of the impending elections.
