Prime Minister Narendra Modi, in his speech on the interim budget 2024-25 on Thursday, said that “while keeping fiscal deficit under control, capital expenditure has been given a historic high of Rs 11,11,111 crore”, which in a manner is a “sweet spot”.
Modi said, “With this, besides building India’s modern infrastructure of the 21st century, innumerable new job opportunities for the youth will be prepared. It has confidence of continuity. It will empower all 4 pillars of Viksit Bharat- Yuva, Garib, Mahila and Kisan. This Budget gives the guarantee of making India a developed nation by 2047.”
“This Budget stresses on empowerment of the poor and the middle class and creation of new employment opportunities for them. It has announced to construct 2 crore more houses for the poor. We aim to have 3 crore ‘Lakhpati Didis’ now. ASHA and Aganwadi workers will also get the benefit of the Ayushman Bharat scheme,” he said.
