Calling the budget crucial for ‘Amrit Kaal’, PM maintained, “This budget will chart the path for the next five years, guiding us towards our resolution of ‘Viksit Bharat’ by 2047, the time our country completes 100 years of Independence.”
Urging all parliamentarians to focus on the country’s welfare, the Prime Minister said, “I urge all MPs, regardless of party affiliation, to dedicate themselves to the nation. We must fight for the empowerment of farmers, youth, and the country. The mandate has been given; now, it’s our responsibility to work together for the nation’s progress.”
He appealed to all MPs, especially newcomers, to engage constructively.
PM Modi accused the Opposition with attempting to “suppress the voice” while he was speaking in the Parliament.
The prime minister urged “unity and a focus” on national objectives as he concluded his speech.
