Meghalaya Chief Minister Conrad K. Sangma responded on social media to the Union Budget 2025–2026 presented to Parliament by Union Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman, writing, “We are grateful to Hon’ble Finance Minister Smt. Nirmala Sitharaman for a visionary budget that prioritizes growth, innovation, and opportunities for our youth. With programs like the PM Dhan Dhanya Krishi Yojana, improved MSMEs financial support, the updated UDAN scheme for improved connectivity, and school internet access, Meghalaya would gain a lot from this budget. Our goal is to double our GSDP by taking advantage of these opportunities to spur growth and generate jobs. We’re constructing a better future for our state and its citizens together.”
Saleng A. Sangma, a member of parliament from Tura, responded to the Union Budget as well, recognizing how it affected Meghalaya. The budget was praised by the Meghalaya branch of the Bharatiya Janata Party, which called it “historic” and a “blessing for the middle-income group.” Prime Minister Narendra Modi was commended by the BJP for considering the interests of all societal segments, particularly the middle class. “We hope that the growth engine of the economy will get a further boost due to this people-friendly budget,” said the party.
