  • Praises Modi Government’s inclusive vision for india’s transformation into world leader*

NEW DELHI/JAMMU: Member of Parliament, Rajya Sabha Er. Gulam Ali Khatana has expressed his strong support for the Union Budget 2024-25, describing it as a testament to the Modi government’s dedication to inclusivity and development.

In a statement, MP Khatana praised Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman’s presentation, emphasizing the budget’s comprehensive approach to addressing the needs of all sections of society.

“The budget for the financial year 2024-25, presented by Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman, is framed with a focus on the well-being of all sections of society,” Khatana stated.

He commended the government’s efforts in ensuring that marginalized communities, including Scheduled Castes (SCs), Scheduled Tribes (STs), Other Backward Classes (OBCs), and minority communities, receive special attention.

Khatana highlighted the inclusive nature of the budget, noting that it goes beyond mere financial allocations. “The budget is not confined to financial transactions only, but it reflects PM Shri Narendra Modi’s vision for all the citizens of the country,” he remarked. The budget encapsulates the Prime Minister’s commitment to fostering an equitable and prosperous India, the BJP leader said.

The parliamentarian underscored the Rajya Sabha’s endorsement of the government’s narrative, which positions the Union Budget 2024-25 as a driver of robust economic growth. “The Union Budget 2024-25 will lead us toward robust growth. Under the leadership of PM Shri Narendra Modi, India is rapidly heading towards its ultimate target of becoming Vishwa Guru, or ‘World Leader’,” he asserted.

Khatana also called on the opposition to play a constructive role in the nation’s progress. “Instead of diverting the attention of masses to petty issues, the opposition should contribute positively to making Bharat the Vishwa Guru,” he said. His remarks underscore a broader appeal for political unity and focus on the country’s long-term goals.

The budget’s allocation includes significant investments in key sectors such as healthcare, education, infrastructure, and rural development, aimed at boosting overall economic resilience and growth. Khatana noted that these measures are crucial for sustaining the momentum of development and ensuring that the benefits of economic growth are equitably distributed.

Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman’s budget has been lauded by various sections of society for its inclusivity and forward-thinking approach. The emphasis on marginalized communities and strategic investments in critical sectors reflect the government’s commitment to fostering a holistic and inclusive growth trajectory.

As India moves forward, the Union Budget 2024-25 is poised to play a pivotal role in shaping the country’s economic landscape, driving growth, and promoting social equity. MP Gulam Ali Khatana’s endorsement highlights the budget’s significance in realizing Prime Minister Modi’s vision of a prosperous and inclusive India.
