“Maa Lakshmi gives us wisdom and intellect; she also provides prosperity and welfare. I pray to Maa Lakshmi that may all the poor and middle-class communities receive her special blessings.”

He added saying, “Our Republic has completed 75 years, and this is a matter of great pride for every citizen of the country. Friends, the people of this country have given me the responsibility for the third time, and this is the first full budget of this third term. And I can confidently say that in 2047, when we will celebrate 100 years of independence, the vision of a developed India that the country has adopted, this budget will create a new belief, give new energy, and when the country celebrates its 100 years of independence, it will definitely be a developed nation.
140 crore citizens will fulfill this resolve through their collective efforts.”

He said, “In the third term, we are moving forward in mission mode, taking the country towards inclusive development, with a resolve for inclusive growth. Innovation, inclusion, and investment have consistently been the foundation of our economic roadmap.”

He added saying, “In this session, as always, there will be discussions on many historic bills, and with thorough deliberation, laws will be made that will work towards strengthening the nation. Especially, the empowerment of women will be re-established, and many important decisions will be taken to ensure that every woman leads a dignified life.”

Reform, Perform And Transform

PM Modi sheds light on “Reform, Perform, and Transform.” He said,when we have to achieve rapid development, the focus is primarily on reforms. Both the central and state governments need to work together to perform, and through public participation, we can see transformation. Our youth is our strength, and today, the young generation aged 20-25 years, when they reach 45-50 years, will be the biggest beneficiaries of a developed India. They will be in positions of policymaking, where they will proudly move forward with a developed India as the centenary of independence begins.”

“Therefore, the entire effort towards realizing the vision of a developed India, the hard work today that we are putting in, will become a huge gift for our younger generation. Those who fought for freedom from 1930-1942, the entire country’s youth was involved, and its benefits were reaped by the generation that came 25 years later.

That’s why in this budget session, all parliamentarians will contribute to strengthening a developed India, especially the young MPs, for whom this is a golden opportunity, as the awareness they create in the House today will yield invaluable results.”

PM Modi said , “Friends, today you must have noticed something, especially the media should take note, perhaps, this is the first time in a parliamentary session from 2014 to now, that just a day or two before the session, there hasn’t been any foreign spark or attempt to ignite trouble. For the last 10 years, since 2014, before every session, there were people ready to stir up issues, and there was no shortage of those who fueled it. But this is the first session where there hasn’t been any foreign influence trying to start a fire.”
