Reactions on Budget 2010 - Dr. Devi Singh, Director, IIM Lucknow
IIM Lucknow is India's premier Management school that undertakes a diverse range of academic activities and interventions aimed at creation, dissemination, and application of management knowledge and practices.
"The FM has presented a very balanced budget. While the focus has been on infrastructure development and rural development, education has also retained its "importance". The increase in budgetary allocations for school education and the special grant from the centre for elementary education are very positive signs for the sector. The curtailment of fiscal deficit is a step in the right direction and we are happy that the FM is committed to creating policies to facilitate a double digit GDP growth for the near future." |
