UP BJP president and Union minister Pankaj Chaudhary on Tuesday extended a warm welcome to the state Budget, describing it as "historic" and meticulously crafted to align with public aspirations, good governance, welfare initiatives, and overall prosperity. Chaudhary emphasized that the budgetary allocations reflect the unwavering commitment and visionary leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath, who are tirelessly working towards transforming Uttar Pradesh into a fully developed, self-reliant, and prosperous state.
Accelerated Development and Welfare Implementation
Chaudhary highlighted that the significantly enhanced financial outlay in the Budget will serve as a powerful catalyst to accelerate development projects across the state. This increased funding is expected to ensure the faster and more efficient implementation of numerous welfare schemes, reaching beneficiaries in a timely manner. "The model of development and trust established by the state government is strongly and clearly reflected in this comprehensive budget," Chaudhary stated, underscoring the administration's dedication to tangible progress.
Inclusive Approach Addressing All Sections of Society
The BJP leader asserted that the Budget has been thoughtfully designed to consider the diverse needs and expectations of every segment of society. A major focal point is the empowerment of women, with specific provisions aimed at ensuring their safety, dignity, and economic independence. These measures are intended to foster greater social and financial self-reliance among women throughout Uttar Pradesh.
Youth Empowerment and Industrial Growth Initiatives
Chaudhary noted that the Budget includes comprehensive initiatives to connect the youth with enhanced educational opportunities, skill development programs, start-up ecosystems, and employment avenues. These efforts are geared towards making the younger generation more capable and self-sufficient. Furthermore, emphasizing industrial growth, he pointed out that provisions promoting industrial development, support for MSMEs, infrastructure expansion, and investment attraction are poised to generate large-scale employment opportunities across the state.
Focus on Agriculture and Farmer Welfare
The government's steadfast focus on agriculture and farmer welfare was also highlighted by Chaudhary. He mentioned that special emphasis has been placed on critical areas such as irrigation, storage facilities, adoption of modern agricultural technology, and the development of agro-based industries. These steps aim to bolster the agricultural sector and improve the livelihoods of farmers.
Key Budgetary Provisions for Women and Youth
"The Budget places special emphasis on women's employment and self-reliance. Significant measures, such as the allocation of Rs 400 crore under the Rani Lakshmibai Scooty Scheme for meritorious girl students, the construction of hostels for working women, the creation of new employment opportunities for youth, and the establishment of a dedicated sports university, represent milestone decisions for empowering both youth and women," Chaudhary elaborated.
Embracing the Spirit of Inclusive Development
In conclusion, Chaudhary affirmed that the Budget truly embodies the spirit of ‘Sabka Saath, Sabka Vikas, Sabka Vishwas aur Sabka Prayas’ (Together with all, Development for all, Trust of all, and Efforts of all). He expressed confidence that this fiscal blueprint will propel Uttar Pradesh to new heights of development, ensuring inclusive growth and prosperity for all its residents.
