PM Modi To Address Post-Budget Webinar On 'Harnessing Youth Power Through Skilling And Education'
Prime Minister Narendra Modi will speak at the post-budget webinar titled "Harnessing youth power through Skilling and Education" on February 25, at 10 a.m. It is one of 12 post-budget webinars that the government is holding to get ideas and suggestions for how to put the initiatives in the Union Budget into action.
Seven priorities are adopted in the Union Budget. These priorities complement one another and serve as the "Saptarishi" who directs us through the Amrit Kaal.
One of the government's top priorities, along with education and skills, is inclusive development. There will be six breakout sessions during the webinar that will focus on both the education and skill sectors. These webinars will be attended by a variety of stakeholders, including Ministers and Secretaries of the relevant Central Government Ministries, Education & Skill Departments of State Governments, industry representatives, students, teachers, and faculty from schools and universities, academia & research institutions, Skill Development Bodies, Sector Skill Councils, ITIs, and bodies such as FICCI, CII, and NASSCOM, among others, and they will offer suggestions for how to better carry out budgetary announcements.
Amit Shah In Bihar, Nitish And Tejashwi To Also Hold Rally
Chief Minister Nitish Kumar and his deputy Tejashwi Yadav will host a joint "Mahagathbandhan" rally on Saturday, and Union Home Minister Amit Shah will give speeches to BJP supporters at two locations.
A public meeting in Balmiki Nagar Lok Sabha constituency, a party stronghold that was given to the chief minister's JD(U) in 2019 as part of seat-sharing arrangements, will be Shah's first stop on his tour of the state.
The event, which is expected to take place around noon, would coincide with the "Mahagathbandhan" rally at Purnea, which is more than 400 kilometers away. There, the septuagenarian CM and his 33-year-old deputy will be joined by smaller allies like the Congress and the Left to show the state's own version of a "united opposition," which Kumar, in particular, believes is the best way to fight the powerful BJP in the Lok Sabha elections next year
Within a few hours of the West Champaran district rally, Shah will be in the state capital. He will speak at a "Kisan Mazdur Samagam" in Patna to commemorate the birthday of Swami Sahajanand Saraswati, a peasant leader and freedom fighter.
