🔹 Vinit Agarwal Sharda: “Double-Engine Governance Delivering Results”
Vinit Agarwal Sharda said the Budget reflects Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s vision of “Sabka Saath, Sabka Vikas, Sabka Vishwas, Sabka Prayas” translated effectively at the state level under Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath’s leadership.
He emphasized that the government’s focus on infrastructure expansion, industrial corridors, digital ecosystems, startup promotion, MSME facilitation, and logistics hubs demonstrates a clear pro-business orientation. Highlighting western Uttar Pradesh, particularly the Meerut region, Agarwal noted that projects such as the Rapid Rail, expressway connectivity, and new industrial clusters are set to transform the regional economy.
“This Budget respects the aspirations of 25 crore citizens of Uttar Pradesh and lays a strong foundation for sustainable and investment-driven growth,” he said.

Dr. Parveen Singh Jadaun described the Budget as people-centric and development-oriented, stressing its balanced allocation across health, education, agriculture, and cooperative sectors.
He welcomed the expansion of medical institutions, rural healthcare infrastructure, skill development initiatives targeting over 9 lakh youth, and investments aimed at strengthening agricultural value chains. According to him, empowering cooperative institutions and rural enterprises will enhance farmers’ incomes and generate employment at the grassroots level.
He also underlined the importance of support for women-led self-help groups and youth entrepreneurship, calling it a key pillar of social inclusion and long-term economic stability.
