In the early stages of a lengthy budget speech, Finance Minister Arun Jaitley on Saturday recited a couplet that drew applause - at least from his party's law-makers. "Kuch to gul khilaye hain, kuch abhi khilane hain, par baagh mein ab bhi kaante kuchh puraney hain," (We have made some progress and are working towards achieving more goals, but there are some hindrances in the way), Mr Jaitley said, referring to the policies of the Congress-led coalition government that was voted out last year.
