Lucknow, February 2026 : Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath praised the Union Budget 2026-27 and shared his reaction by stating, “The new budget has been presented to the nation with a clear roadmap for a New and Developed India in the world’s largest democracy. I express my gratitude to Prime Minister Narendra Modi for his guidance and decisive leadership behind the budget. I also thank Union Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman for presenting the first budget prepared at Kartavya Bhavan.” The budget clearly reflects the vision of a New and Developed India, he added.

Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath said that this budget, representing the hopes and aspirations of 145 crore Indians, clearly showcases the vision of a New and Developed India. Provisions have been made for capital expenditure of more than ₹12 lakh crore, strengthening infrastructure and funding seven rail corridors. Efforts have been made to develop the AYUSH sector and strengthen healthcare services. The budget places special emphasis on common citizens and women.

CM Yogi appreciated the budget for initiatives such as the construction of girls’ hostels in every district, establishment of STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics) institutions and providing world-class infrastructure facilities to give wings to the aspirations of youth.

He said, the wide-ranging reforms presented across all sectors, along with the creation of opportunities for youth, will help make the lives of common citizens easier and simpler.

Welcoming the budget provisions, CM Yogi said, “The budget will prove helpful in accelerating India’s economic growth. It is a budget that creates new opportunities for youth, women, farmers, entrepreneurs and common citizens. The middle class and ordinary people were looking at this budget with great hope”.

Last year, the country witnessed GST reforms, from which common citizens benefited. The move to implement, simplify and make the Income Tax Act easier from April, so that everyone can file returns conveniently, is a welcoming step. Encouraging more people to pay income tax and contribute to nation-building makes this an extremely important initiative.

CM Yogi further added, this budget has been crafted keeping every section of society including youth, women, farmers and entrepreneurs in focus. It presents India as a fast-growing economy moving towards a Developed India.
