He described it as a roadmap for a technologically advanced and self-reliant nation, underscoring its role in shaping the country’s future.
Union Minister further commended the Budget’s groundbreaking initiatives, particularly its focus on technological innovation and energy independence. He highlighted the historic decision to allow private sector participation in the nuclear industry, calling it a game-changer for India’s energy sector. He noted that these measures would not only help achieve energy self-sufficiency but also propel India toward global leadership in advanced nuclear technology by 2047.
Besides, Singh emphasized the government’s commitment to establishing nuclear power as a cornerstone of India’s energy strategy. He said the introduction of the ‘Nuclear Energy Mission for Viksit Bharat’ outlines a comprehensive plan to enhance domestic nuclear capabilities, foster private sector participation, and deploy advanced nuclear technologies.
Reflecting on the success of opening the space sector to private players, Minister expressed confidence that similar reforms in the nuclear sector will accelerate growth and innovation.
