He further added that 60% of Asia’s unicorns are from India. Over the years, India has become a "startup hub". The immense workforce of India allows for various new ideas to flourish. The advent of "Green" startups has just begun. Analyzing the trends, in 10-15 years, there will be no option but to live on alternate energy sources like solar energy, compost, etc.

Mr. Chamola explained the budget's impact on the agricultural sector. The reduction in subsidies and reforms to curb stubble burning and pollution were key focus areas. Agriculture was the only sector to grow in the pandemic positively. This Union Budget promotes chemical-free natural farming and climate action in the primary industry.

Instead of providing subsidies to farmers, the government directly allocates funds to them through various schemes. In general, there is a focus on giving credit to agriculture-based industries. Eighteen projects have been created to provide the farmers with more freedom for agriculture planning. The government is also trying to promote solarisation of the agricultural value chain, i.e., solar-based cold storage, irrigation pumps, etc.
