New Delhi.  03 February 2026. Union Home Minister and Minister of Cooperation Amit Shah has extended heartfelt congratulations, on behalf of every Indian, to Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman for the budget that reflects the vision of building a developed India by 2047 and outlines the roadmap for the next 25 years.

In a series of posts on X, Union Home Minister Amit Shah said, “From manufacturing to infrastructure, from health to tourism, from rural areas to AI, from sports to pilgrimage sites, the Viksit Bharat Budget is one that empowers and fulfills the dreams of the youth, women, and farmers in every village, every town, and every city. Heartfelt congratulations, on behalf of every Indian, to PM Narendra Modi and Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman for this budget that reflects the building of a developed India by 2047 and outlines the roadmap for the next 25 years.”

Amit Shah said, “I congratulate PM Modi on the remarkable landmark set by the Viksit Bharat Budget with the resounding reaffirmation of the Modi government’s commitment to drive growth and development with fiscal prudence. This budget fulfills the target of keeping the fiscal deficit below 4.5%.”

Union Home Minister said, “Through the Budget 2026-27, Prime Minister Modi has proven that self-reliant and developed India is not merely a slogan, but the firm resolve of our government. This budget not only provides a clear blueprint for empowering every sector, every class, and every citizen, but also offers a practical, on-the-ground vision to encourage and support them at every step. The Viksit Bharat Budget is a vision for building an India that leads the world in every field.”

Amit Shah said, “Viksit Bharat Budget embodies Bharat as a nation forging its new identity as an emerging economic power center with resolute trust in its own strengths. Post covid, PM Narendra Modi’s visionary economic policies have fuelled the Indian economy. Viksit Bharat Budget turbocharges the momentum to bolster India’s position on the global stage as the most attractive investment destination for a wide range of sectors, from traditional to the new-age ones.”

Union Home Minister and Minister of Cooperation said, “Viksit Bharat Budget accelerates Modi’s vision of a Future Ready Bharat where growth reaches beyond big cities, by allocating ₹12.2 lakh crore for capital expenditure. The target of reaching out to Tier 2 and Tier 3 cities through new rail corridors, National Waterways and improved connectivity will boost jobs growth elevating India’s aspirations to new heights.”

Amit Shah said, “Viksit Bharat Budget will give unprecedented momentum to connectivity in India. Seven high-speed rail corridors announced today aimed at supercharging inter-city connectivity and slashing down travel time across key economic and population centres of our country.”

Union Home Minister said, “In a historic decision, the Viksit Bharat Budget has launched the “Mahatma Gandhi Gram Swaraj Yojana” to realise Mahatma Gandhi’s dream of Gram Swaraj. This will strengthen the rural economy and provide new support to weavers, farmers, and the handloom industry. The Coconut Promotion Scheme in coastal areas, benefiting 3 crore farmers; the push to boost cashew and cocoa production and exports; and the decision to conserve sandalwood all show that Modi is fully committed to farmers’ prosperity and to making agriculture a profitable enterprise.’”

Amit Shah said, “Making MSMEs the champions of India’s growth story Viksit Bharat Budget realises Modi’s vision of galvanising the economy from the grassroots through a clear three pronged framework with a ₹10,000 crore Growth Fund. The provision will propel the MSMEs in tier 2 and tier 3 cities to hit their targets through structured professional handholding.”

Union Home Minister and Minister of Cooperation said, “The Viksit Bharat Budget has taken a visionary decision to increase farmers’ incomes through livestock. By increasing the number of veterinarians and expanding veterinary centres and training centres, the livestock-based economy will be strengthened. Decisions such as providing credit-linked subsidies for the dairy and poultry sectors, promoting fisheries through the development of 500 ponds, and providing access to global markets will prove to be major milestones in the Modi government’s resolve to raise farmers’ income”.

Amit Shah said, “The Modi government’s decision in the Viksit Bharat Budget to develop 15 archaeological sites, including Dholavira, as cultural destinations will establish India’s ancient culture on the global stage. The construction of a Buddhist Circuit in five northeastern states, the development of mountain trails in Himachal Pradesh, Uttarakhand, Jammu & Kashmir and the Araku Valley, and turtle trails in Odisha, Karnataka and Kerala will give fresh momentum to development in these regions and promote eco-tourism. Additionally, the establishment of a National Institute of Hospitality will provide youth with skills and employment opportunities and further strengthen the tourism sector.”

Union Home Minister said, “The Viksit Bharat Budget is a powerful reflection of Modi’s vision from education to self-employment. The development of five university townships around major industrial and logistics corridors will promote education–industry integration. At the same time, the construction and upgradation of four telescope infrastructure facilities will give fresh momentum to research. The establishment of AVGC labs at the National Institute of Design, in 15,000 secondary schools and 500 colleges, and the formation of a high-powered committee on “Education to Employment and Enterprise” reflect the resolve to make the new generation skill-equipped and to build a India that leads in every field.”

Amit Shah said that the Viksit Bharat Budget is taking the country into a new era of prosperity by harnessing the power of our youth. For this, content creation training has been started in 15,000 schools, and special initiatives have been launched to provide affordable sports equipment. He said that by launching youth careers in sectors such as semiconductors, IT, textiles, hospitality, tourism, and corporate compliance, the Budget is accelerating the vehicle of their progress.

Union Home and Cooperation Minister said, “Viksit Bharat Budget is taking connectivity to the next level by opening new connectivity corridors. He said that 20 new national waterways and a freight corridor linking Dankuni in the east with Surat in the west will open new pathways of prosperity for trade and commerce.”

Amit Shah said, “Viksit Bharat Budget is a major step towards realising Prime Minister Modi’s vision of a Healthy India. He said that the ₹10,000 crore BioPharma Shakti Yojana, 1,000 trial sites, customs duty exemptions on 17 cancer medicines, assistive devices for persons with disabilities, the NIMHANS-2 initiative for mental health, and five medical tourism centres will make healthcare more accessible.”

The Union Home Minister said, “The Modi government is continuously working towards educating, enriching, and empowering women. In the Viksit Bharat Budget, the plan to open girls’ hostels in every district will provide our sisters with better and safer access to education. After making women “Lakhpati Didis,” the Modi government is now moving towards opening SHE Marts for women. These retail outlets will create a strong foundation for making women enterprise owners. Additionally, with the launch of the She-Mark badge, easy access to financing for women will be ensured.”
