Prime Minister Narendra Modi fired up the post-budget webinar on Friday, zeroing in on technology, reforms, and finance as pillars for Viksit Bharat. From New Delhi via video link, he reinforced the post-budget webinar tradition as a powerhouse for effective policy rollout.
‘Budgets aren’t judged by stock ticks or tax headlines,’ Modi quipped. They’re holistic blueprints demanding evaluation on lasting benchmarks: infra expansion, seamless credit, business-friendly reforms, transparent governance, and life-simplifying measures that fortify the economy for generations.
Every budget advances the continuum of nation-building toward 2047’s developed India goal, he clarified. These forums must spark brainstorming, harnessing industry, academia, experts, and officials for superior scheme execution.
India’s crisis-tested resilience over 10 years? No fluke—it’s reform-fueled: simpler red tape, business ease upgrades, tech governance, stronger pillars. Now, with Reform Express at full throttle, execution excellence trumps announcements. Measure by dirt-level results.
AI, blockchain, data tools will turbocharge transparency and responsiveness; grievance systems ensure oversight. Infra capex leap—from ₹2 lakh crore to ₹12 lakh crore+—is government’s green light for private sector sprint: innovate funding, fast-track approvals, master costs to nix overruns.
FDI streamlining, bond market activation for steady finance, liquidity boosts, novel instruments, risk mastery—industry must contribute global insights. A binding ‘Reform Partnership Charter’ could cement government-industry-finance-academia alliance.
In closing, Modi implored all players—banks, markets, businesses, pros, innovators—to grab budget openings. ‘Enough talk; time to deliver fast and clean,’ he said, rallying for shared push to actualize Viksit Bharat.
