Prime Minister Narendra Modi expressed his appreciation for the Economic Survey on Monday, stating that it effectively highlighted the ‘prevailing strengths’ of the Indian economy. His remarks come on the eve of Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman’s presentation of the Union Budget in Lok Sabha.
In a post on X, Modi emphasized that the Economic Survey not only showcases the inherent strengths of the economy but also effectively demonstrates the positive outcomes resulting from various reforms implemented by the government. Furthermore, he acknowledged that the document identifies areas with potential for further growth and advancement as India continues its journey towards realizing its vision of a ‘Viksit Bharat’ (Developed India).
It’s important to note that the Economic Survey is an annual document presented by the government in advance of the Union Budget. Its purpose is to provide a comprehensive review of the current state of the Indian economy. The survey also offers insights and projections regarding the short-to-medium-term prospects of the economy.
