February 2023 Archive — News Lives India
February 2023 was a month full of clear, practical stories that mattered to readers across India. The biggest single item was the Union Budget 2023 (presented on February 1) — we focused on what the numbers meant for families, small businesses, and job seekers. Beyond the budget, our reporters covered fast-moving political updates, entertainment releases, sports highlights, and quick explainers that broke down the complex parts of each story.
What we covered in February 2023
Budget analysis: We published plain-language explainers about key announcements and how they could affect take-home pay, subsidies, and public spending. If you wanted the bottom line on taxes, infrastructure spending, or support for startups, our pieces laid out the likely impacts in simple terms.
Politics and policy: State-level developments and central decisions made headlines. Our short updates tracked debates, policy changes, and government responses that had real effects on local services and programs. We highlighted how new rules or announcements would reach everyday citizens.
Entertainment and culture: February brought movie and music news, festival updates, and interviews that caught readers’ interest. Instead of long reviews, many of our posts gave fast, useful takes — what to watch, what to skip, and why a release mattered for audiences.
Sports and events: From domestic league action to player updates, our sports coverage focused on outcomes that readers cared about and what those results meant for upcoming matches and tournaments. We kept it short, factual, and forward-looking.
Explainers and how-tos: When a policy or news item got complicated, we published step-by-step guides. These explained how to check eligibility for a scheme, interpret a budget line item, or follow an ongoing political story without jargon.

Why does NDTV News always show against PM Modi?
NDTV News has been accused of having a bias against Prime Minister Modi since he took office in 2014. Critics cite the network's coverage of his policies and activities as being overly negative. The network has also been accused of giving too much airtime to opposition politicians, while not providing enough coverage of the government's achievements. NDTV insists that it is objective and impartial in its reporting, and that its coverage is based solely on facts and the truth. However, many people still believe the network is biased against the Prime Minister and his government.
