India's Union Budget 2026-27, presented by Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman on February 1, 2026, emphasized "youth-driven growth" to capitalize on the demographic dividend through education, skill development, and digital tools. The government has allocated approximately ₹1.4 lakh crore for the education sector in the 2026-27 budget. Key budget announcements include safe housing for female students, youth skill centers, and AI platforms like BharatVistaar, all aligned with the goals of a developed India.
Demographic Dividend as an Engine
Education, skills, youth, and students are crucial pillars of India's vision of a developed India. Translating our demographic dividend into a high-productivity workforce is not just an option but a necessity for becoming a developed nation by 2047. These not only promote inclusive growth, innovation, and economic resilience, but also align with India's ambitions of achieving a $30 trillion GDP and global leadership in services and manufacturing. The Union Budget 2026-27's education, skills, youth, and student schemes are built on this foundation.
