Interim Budget for Naya Bharat

Union Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman presented the Interim Budget for 2024-2025, setting India on a path towards ‘Viksit Bharat‘ by 2047. This budget was marked by an ambitious plan for inclusive growth, infrastructure improvement, and strengthening economic stability, highlighting the government’s use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and strategic planning to overcome global challenges.

Anshuman Das, CEO and Co-founder, Careernet:
“As we witness the unprecedented pace of infrastructure development in all facets—be it digital, social, or physical—it is evident that the government’s commitment to progress is unwavering. The financial provisions outlined by the Finance Minister signal a paradigm shift, especially in the empowerment of women. With 300 million Mudra Yojana loans, the nation is fostering entrepreneurial spirit, while the remarkable 28% surge in female enrolment in higher education speaks volumes about the strides in education equality. Notably, our optimism is further fuelled by the impressive 43% representation of girls and women in STEM courses, showcasing a commitment to diversity and inclusivity. At Careernet, we embrace this forward momentum, recognising the correlation between education, empowerment, and the rising participation of women in the workforce. This budget sets the stage for a more inclusive and vibrant employment landscape.”
