Finance Minister carries rosary, make sign of the cross
On Wednesday, Tamil Nadu Finance Minister Marie Wilson presented the Revised Budget Estimates 2026-27. As she entered the Legislative Assembly, she carried a rosary and commenced her Budget speech by making the sign of the cross.

Instead, Mr. Wilson dressed in trousers and a tucked-in shirt with button tabs to keep his rolled-up sleeves secure.
