“The recent budget announcements for the education sector are a positive step towards investing in our youth and securing our future. The establishment of new institutions like IIITs, IIMs, AIIMS, and universities will further strengthen our education infrastructure. This is a positive budget for the education sector, and I am confident that it will lead to a brighter future for our youth. I applaud the increase in PM-SHRI budget allocation and the initiative for the establishment of more medical institutes. True skilling and employability demand more than incremental steps. Now let’s bridge the gap between rhetoric and action, and empower our youth to be the skilled, adaptive workforce of tomorrow.”
