“The government allocating a remarkable Rs 1.48 lakh crore for education, employment, and skilling is a significant stride towards empowering the nation's youth and enhancing the educational landscape. This move not only highlights the importance of education as a cornerstone for economic growth but also addresses critical issues such as dropout rates and literacy levels, particularly in rural areas. The addition of favorable loan terms will encourage students to invest in their future and empower students to chase their academic dreams without the constant worry of debt. Also, the budgetary allocation of over 3 lakh crores for initiatives benefiting girls and women aims to enhance access to quality education. It will aid by funding scholarships, building girl-centric schools, and establishing mentorship programs that inspire young women to pursue careers in fields traditionally dominated by men, such as science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM).”
