The Budget had human capital development focused on labour-intensive sectors such as agriculture, textiles, leather, toys, rural economy, MSME, etc, and emerging ones such as healthcare, pharma, entertainment, hospitality, etc.Also prominent was the plan to bring AI and its impact on these sectors.

New institutions and initiatives are the highlights - these are aligned to industries that create ‘employment pathways’. Similarly, skilling programmes were linked to not just sectors, but beyond that to job roles that will bring employment.
