Speaking on the budget presented by the Finance Minister Nirmla Sitharaman, Yogi Aditiyanath said that  PM Modi has categorised this budget into four parts: Poor, youth, farmers and women. Under the leadership of the PM in the last 10 and half years, the economy has developed and with this budget, it will grow further. The interest-free loan for improving infrastructure will benefit the states.

He further highlighted that the middle class will get several benefits such as exemptions in tax rebates, calling it a positive step.

“Special economic zone for fishermen, Loans up to 5 lakh for dairy, loans to farmers at low interests, cotton production mission, stress on improving crop and fruit production, and announcement of Anganwadi 2.0 program would be extremely crucial. The best thing is that under the leadership of PM Modi, the government’s aim is to take the benefits to the last person of society. In the next 5 years, a proposal to start a new scheme to provide term loans up to 2 crores to 5 lakh women, SC and ST. In the next 5 years establishing 50,000 Atal Tinkering Lab (ATL), Broadband connectivity in secondary schools at the village level and primary health centres is an important step,” he added.

He further said that the decision to set up cancer centres in the next three years, at all the district hospitals would benefit a state like Uttar Pradesh.

“The establishment of a Center of Excellence of Skilling and Center of Excellence in Artificial Intelligence for education will give global recognition to our youth. We welcome the announcement of the Pradhan Mantri Dhan Dhanya Yojana for the farmers. 1.75 crore farmers in the country will benefit from this scheme. Uttar Pradesh will be the state with the maximum benefit of this scheme through the Kisan Credit Card.

“The announcement of increasing the limit of this credit card from three lakhs to five lakhs is also commendable. The budget is taking the country forward at a fast pace on the resolution of making the country a five-trillion-dollar economy. The budget is to take the vision of the Prime Minister forward with thrice speed in the third phase,” he added.
