New Delhi [India], February 4: The Union Budget's emphasis on infrastructure development, sustainable energy, and urban planning is a significant step towards India's growth and self-reliance. In terms of broader infrastructure development, the budget allocates Rs.1.5 trillion in 50-year interest-free loans to states for capital expenditure, encouraging investments in infrastructure projects - which will bolster economic growth and create more jobs along with improving urban transport and movement of goods. Furthermore, an asset monetization plan for 2025-30 aims to generate Rs10 trillion to fund new projects, thereby accelerating infrastructure growth across the country.
