Under the leadership of Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi, the Union Budget 2026-27 presented by Union Finance Minister Smt. Nirmala Sitharaman Ji, is a revolutionary budget centering youth power to realize the vision of “Viksit Bharat.” I heartily congratulate Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi Ji for this historic Budget. The fact that Smt. Nirmala Sitharaman Ji has presented the Union Budget for the ninth consecutive time is a clear reflection of the continuity of policy and good governance. This budget fully reflects the unwavering trust that the people have in Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi Ji. We have seen that his guiding principle of “Sabka Saath, Sabka Vikas” is clearly evident in every dimension of this budget.
Realizing the vision of a developed India
This budget moves with resolve toward realizing the vision of a developed India by 2047, a dream envisioned by Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi Ji. Despite global uncertainties, the way India’s economy continues to grow at nearly 7 percent indicates that our GSP and GDP have been consistently strengthened, while inflation has been kept under control. This is evidence that this budget is well thought out, reflects confidence in inclusive progress, and clearly shows the government’s intention to strengthen projects related to education and infrastructure.
Youth-driven budget
This is a youth-driven budget. Through infrastructure growth, it aims to advance manufacturing units and emphasizes the creation of new employment opportunities. The support extended by the government to sectors such as semiconductors, electronics, sports, and biopharma is commendable. The strong support system established through approximately Rs. 400 crore for the semiconductor sector and Rs. 10,000 crore for the biopharma sector clearly demonstrates the government’s serious focus on generating new employment opportunities.
Mahatma Gandhi’s vision of Gram Swaraj
Additionally, the budget clearly reflects Mahatma Gandhi’s vision of Gram Swaraj. It will benefit our artisans and small cottage industries and strengthen employment in rural areas. The government’s continued efforts are also evident in the development of tourism and cultural centers, aligning with Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi Ji’s vision.
Initiative to develop 20 new waterways
The initiative to develop 20 new waterways is a step toward opening new dimensions in transportation. While we have traditionally focused on airways, roadways, and railways, the development of waterways now offers better opportunities for progress. Plans to develop Patna and Varanasi as ship-repairing centers will also generate large-scale new employment opportunities in these regions.
The priority given to the coconut industry and fisheries clearly shows the government’s intention to progress inclusively, bringing all sectors and communities along. I also congratulate Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi Ji and Finance Minister Smt. Nirmala Sitharaman Ji for increasing the budget allocation for the transport sector. Similarly, the provision of Rs. 7.8 lakh crore for defense clearly indicates that the nation’s security is non-negotiable.
This budget reflects a clear intention to include every section of society in development and progress. Whether it is the youth, women, the middle class, or any other segment of society, clear direction and resources have been allocated for all. For this, I heartily congratulate Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi Ji and Finance Minister Smt. Nirmala Sitharaman Ji. This budget is a step toward realizing the dreams of a developed India by 2047.

“Under the visionary leadership of PM Shri @narendramodi, India’s journey towards a Viksit Bharat continues to gather momentum. In this spirit, I congratulate Finance Minister Smt. @nsitharaman, for presenting a budget that seeks to “transform aspiration into achievement” and “potential into performance”. This “Yuva Shakti–driven Budget” will further strengthen PM Modi’s vision of an Aatmanirbhar and Viksit Bharat.
Inspired by the three ‘Kartavyas’, this budget aims to accelerate and sustain economic growth, fulfil the aspirations of our people, and ensure meaningful participation for all. Together, these priorities will drive inclusive development, promote the manufacturing sector, and create sustainable infrastructure.
This budget is designed to ensure that the dividends of growth reach every section of society, with special focus on the poor, the underprivileged, and the disadvantaged.”
Budget accelerates Modi Ji’s vision of a Future Ready Bharat: Amit Shah
“Viksit Bharat Budget embodies Bharat as a nation forging its new identity as an emerging economic power centre with resolute trust in its own strengths. Post covid, PM @narendramodiJi’s visionary economic policies have fuelled the Indian economy. Budget turbocharges the momentum to bolster India’s position on the global stage as the most attractive investment destination for a wide range of sectors, from traditional to the new-age ones.
Budget will give unprecedented momentum to connectivity in India. Seven high-speed rail corridors announced today aimed at supercharging inter-city connectivity and slashing down travel time across key economic and population centres of our country.
I congratulate PM Modi Ji on the remarkable landmark set by the #ViksitBharatBudget with the resounding reaffirmation of the Modi government’s commitment to drive growth and development with fiscal prudence. This budget fulfills the target of keeping the fiscal deficit below 4.5%. Budget accelerates Modi Ji’s vision of a Future Ready Bharat where growth reaches beyond big cities, by allocating Rs. 12.2 lakh crore for capital expenditure. The target of reaching out to Tier 2 and Tier 3 cities through new rail corridors, National Waterways and improved connectivity will boost jobs growth elevating India’s aspirations to new heights.
Making MSMEs the champions of India’s growth story Budget realises Modi Ji’s vision of galvanising the economy from the grassroots through a clear three pronged framework with a Rs. 10,000 crore Growth Fund. The provision will propel the MSMEs in tier 2 and tier 3 cities to hit their targets through structured professional handholding.”
