During her budget speech, the finance minister said that the Modi government will adopt economic policies which will foster and sustain growth, facilitate inclusive and sustainable development, improve productivity, and create opportunities for all. She said the government will take up next-gen reforms and build consensus with stakeholders for effective implementation.
