Prime Minister Narendra Modi today described the Budget as “futuristic” with an aim on fulfilling the “dreams” of every section, including the poor, the farmers and the under-privileged while focussing on job creation, transparency, urban rejuvenation and rural development.
He said the Budget is a key link between the work done by his government over the last two-and-a-half and the steps that it will be taking in the future as part of its vision to take the country on the path of development.
“This is a Budget for the future – for farmers, underprivileged, transparency, urban rejuvenation, rural development, enterprise,” Modi said while commenting on the document presented by Finance Minister Arun Jaitley in the Lok Sabha.
Lauding Jaitley for presenting a “good” budget, he said it will speed up the development of the country, create new employment opportunities, double farmers’ income.
It will bring a big change in the financial condition of the villages, Modi said.
