The current Central Government T has completely altered people's, industry's, and experts' perceptions of the General Budget. Previously, governments were only concerned with winning elections, and many of the measures announced were merely to deceive the public. However, the current regime's sensitivity, sensibility, and sincerity in making "Bharat great" again has driven it to make budgets that reflect the people's long-term aspirations. Some measures may irritate some people, but they are necessary for a better Bharat.
This year's Budget focuses not only on all segments of society, but also on making our country "Aatmanirbhar" (Self-reliant). Even today, the majority of our population lives in villages. Therefore, it is critical to focus on the growth of each village by providing them with the necessary skills, knowledge, tools, technology, supporting infrastructure, easy access to money, medical facilities, and housing, as well as toilet and food grain facilities to marginalised families in rural areas. Simple logic dictates that real economic upliftment for each family and GDP growth in the double digits will be possible only if the economy is primarily driven by rural forces, which account for roughly 70 per cent of the total population.
When the economies of the major developed countries are in danger of collapsing for a variety of reasons, most agencies and international banks are bullish on India's economic prospects.
This is the result of the current Government's actions over the last nine years. Many of the actions and policies that appeared negative or unworthy at the time of announcement are now yielding positive results when the world is facing a serious economic crisis. As a result, we must trust the policies and actions announced in the Budget by our FM, Nirmala Sitharaman, because they will help build a strong nation in all aspects of life.
