The budget that was presented in parliament on Friday is a balanced one that will benefit the economy as a whole, while ensuring that ‘the Gaon, Gareeb and Kisan get their due share.’
Ram Vilas Paswan, union minister of consumer affairs, food and public distribution, told the media that it is “a Sabka Saath Sabka Vikaas Budget,” which has provision for betterment of all sectors of the economy with a special focus on the social sector. And this has been the focus of the Narendra Modi-led government.
The budget will hugely benefit the masses as all sectors of the economy have been appropriately covered with increased allocation for key schemes, he said. It will also enormously benefit the SC/ST communities.
There has been a drastic improvement in the allocation for Schedule Castes and Schedule Tribes with an increase of 35% and 28% for both respectively.
