New Delhi: After Union Finance Minister Nirmala Sithraman presented the Budget for FY2021-22 in the Parliament on Monday, Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal termed it as 'favorable for selected companies'.

Apart from these, Sisodia had also requested Sitharaman to allocate additional funds to ease the financial crunch being faced by the three municipal corporations in Delhi.
