The Statesman Bhubaneswar
|February 01, 2025
The government's focus on empowering citizens through education, healthcare, skill development, and social infrastructure development has seen significant progress, according to the Economic Survey 2024-25 tabled in Parliament today by Union Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman.
Highlighting an increase from 23.3% in FY21 to 26.2% per cent in FY25 (BE) or a CAGR of 15%, the Economic Survey notes a rising trend in Government's social services expenditure (SSE), as a percentage of total expenditure (TE). While the SSE outlay of the Centre and State governments was Rs. 14.8 lakh crore in FY21, it has increased steadily to stand at 25.7 lakh crore in FY25 (BE).
