Would be great if you could carry the same in your upcoming story:

“The budget marks a pivotal moment for India’s education sector, reflecting a robust commitment to enhancing opportunities for the youth. The allocation of Rs. 1.48 lakh crore for education, employment, and skilling underscores a strategic shift towards holistic development. The introduction of financial support for loans up to ₹10 lakhs for higher education, particularly for those excluded from existing government schemes, is a game-changer. The e-vouchers offering a 3% annual interest subvention for one lakh students will make higher education more accessible and affordable, potentially transforming countless futures.

The proposal to open working women hostels in collaboration with industry underscores a strong commitment to supporting female workforce participation and creating a more inclusive environment for women.

The budget’s focus on upskilling, with a revised Model Skilling Loan scheme and the upgrading of 1,000 industrial training institutes, reflects a clear intent to enhance employability. By aiming to skill 20 lakh youth over the next five years, this budget sets the stage for a more skilled, competitive workforce, ultimately driving economic growth and innovation”
