The numbers are staggering - 53.5 lakh crore expenditure! While the vision for 2047 is inspiring, I hope the benefits truly reach the grassroots and our rural weavers as mentioned. Gram Swaraj is a noble goal.

Ninth consecutive budget by the same FM shows policy stability, which is good for long-term planning. The focus on capex is positive, but the fiscal deficit at 4.3% still needs careful watching. Responsible criticism is healthy for democracy.

As someone working in the development sector, I appreciate the continued narrative around 'Sabka Saath, Sabka Vikas'. The proof will be in the inclusive outcomes, especially for marginalized communities. The intent seems right.

The debt-to-GDP ratio improving from 56.1% to 55.6% is a small but positive step. However, with such high borrowings (17.2L cr gross), the pressure on future generations remains. Need more concrete plans for revenue generation beyond borrowing.

Budget sounds good on paper. But as a small business owner, I'm waiting to see how these 'efforts to boost manufacturing units' translate to easier loans, less red tape, and actual support on the ground. That's the real test.
