The #Budget2024 provides unlimited opportunities to youth, women, farmers and entrepreneurs and lays down plans for prosperous rural India. The budget will speed up development of a robust agriculture infrastructure and urban development.

Focus on productivity & resilience in agriculture and measures highlighted in budget will greatly benefit J&K. Natural farming, mission for oilseeds, vegetable production, supply chains & national cooperation will ensure inclusive growth for farmers, villages and labourers.

J&K has seized the opportunities of 21st century & our youth are building proud & prosperous UT. #Budget2024 with focus on ‘Employment & Skilling’ & new schemes will give fresh impetus to youth empowerment & it’ll pave the way for higher participation of women in the workforce.

Pradhan Mantri Janjatiya Unnat Gram Abhiyan for saturation coverage for tribal families in tribal-majority villages and aspirational districts will be a game-changer. #Budget2024 ensures that system at grassroots is strong & caring and people enjoy the fruits of social justice.”
