Quotes of AISECT spokespersons on budget 2025-26

“The budget being focused on building National Centres of Excellence for Skilling and AI-driven education is a promising step towards unlocking growth and employment opportunities for our youth, which is the ask of the moment. As educators, we have been and will continue to be sure that future generations are not only equipped with the latest skills but also with a spirit of curiosity and innovation and other imperatives.

What comes as a bolster to entrepreneurs is the introduction of customized credit cards for micro-enterprises and the expansion of the Credit Guarantee Scheme for startups, which is the much-needed financial backing to MSMEs and entrepreneurs.

The results of this are positively more employment and hence a more robust economy. We are extremely thrilled about the extension of the Jal Jeevan Mission till 2028, which further reinforces our government’s commitment to rural development, ensuring comprehensive infrastructure improvements, including connectivity and access to essential services.

The forward-thinking initiatives by the Finance Ministry are sure to strengthen India’s education system, empower entrepreneurs, and make skill development accessible to all, driving growth and innovation across sectors.”

• Dr. Siddharth Chaturvedi, Director, AISECT Group and SUPER 30 Education Leaders

“Budget 2025 reflects a progressive vision for higher education and the skill ecosystem in India. An important measure put forth in the Budget today is the Bharatiya Bhasha Pustak scheme, a new initiative to provide digital books in Indian language for schools and higher education students. This scheme will make learning more accessible by offering study materials in regional languages, and this move aligns well with the government’s push to integrate technology into education while promoting linguistic diversity.

The government’s emphasis on expanding digital public infrastructure for education, increasing funding for the PM Kaushal Vikas Yojana 4.0, and establishing new Skill India International Centres will play a transformative role in bridging the gap between academic learning and industry demands. Additionally, the proposed creation of multidisciplinary research universities and enhanced support for emerging technologies like AI, robotics, and green energy will foster innovation and future-ready skills. At AISECT, we are committed to leveraging these initiatives to build a robust, inclusive, and dynamic workforce that drives India’s growth story.”

• Santosh Choubey, Social Entrepreneur, Chairman of the AISECT Group

“Budget 2025 marks a pivotal step towards fostering women’s empowerment with targeted measures aimed at enhancing economic participation and social equity. The increased allocation for schemes like the Mahila Samman Savings Certificate, expansion of the Self-Help Group (SHG) initiatives under DAY-NRLM, and support for women-led startups through dedicated funding reflect a clear commitment to gender-inclusive growth. Additionally, the focus on skill development programs tailored for women, coupled with financial inclusion efforts, will create pathways for economic independence.

The schemes announced to facilitate and scale up toy manufacturing, will help in giving a boost to the ‘Make in India’ campaign. Government’s further plans to establish a toy manufacturing ecosystem, creating a skilled workforce is surely encouraging.

The government’s decision to encourage 5 lakh women SC/ST first-time entrepreneurs to start their businesses is a significant step to empower women. At AISCET, we strongly believe these initiatives not only empower women but also serve as catalysts for sustainable national growth and inclusive development”.
