NEW DELHI, June 11 Asia Pulse - With the federal government deciding to recommend to the President to prorogue both Houses of Parliament, the Budget session is expected to begin on July 5.
A formal decision in this regard is expected in the next few days.
The possibility of the session beginning in the first week of July than on June 28 as earlier planned arose in view of Finance Minister P Chidambaram seeking a little more time for the prepration of Budget 2004-05.
