On Friday, ahead of the Budget Session 2025 of Parliament, Prime Minister Narendra Modi hinted at the possibility of a generous Budget for the poor and middle classes.

In his speech, he also spoke about the role of the young generation and Viksit Bharat. “Ours is a young nation, and today 20-25-year-olds will be the greatest beneficiaries of Viksit Bharat by the time they will be 50 years old… They will be at the helm of policymaking... The efforts to fulfil our vision of Viksit Bharat will be a huge gift for our young generation.”
