💨 Abstract

A parliamentary panel has criticized the current budget allocation to the Ministry of External Affairs (MEA), saying it's insufficient to support India's foreign policy priorities and international stature. The panel calls for a substantial increase in the budget to meet India's diplomatic and development objectives, as the allocation has decreased by 7.39% and 18.83% compared to the previous years' revised estimates.
