Agriculture remains the main driver of the rural economy. Our hard-
With the support of professional farmers
Over the past four and a half years, our government's peasant policy has produced a record number of agricultural commodities.
Since 2017, agricultural prices in the international market have fallen and food inflation in India has declined.
18, relative to non
However, the food sector has reduced the return on agriculture.
Small and scattered lands held by repeated divisions also led to a decline in farmers' household income.
Therefore, it is necessary to provide structural income support for poor land --
Farmers families who purchase inputs such as seeds, fertilizers, equipment, labor force, etc. in the country.
Meet other needs.
This support will also help them avoid debt and fall into the hands of the debt lenders.
In order to provide guaranteed income support to small and marginal farmers, my government is launching a historic programme under which vulnerable land farmers with up to 2 hectares of arable land can, direct revenue support will be provided at a rate of 6 k per year.
This income support will be transferred directly to the bank account of the beneficiary farmer, with each amount of '2,000 'and paid in three equal installments.
The plan will be funded by the Indian government.
Some 12 crore farmers and marginal farmers are expected to benefit from this.

Now, I propose to provide a 2% interest subsidy to farmers engaged in animal husbandry and fishery activities, who receive loans through Kisan Credit Card.

In order to ensure the availability of convenient and favourable credit and to make KCC acceptable to all farmers, my government has decided to initiate a comprehensive effort with a simplified application form.
When a natural disaster occurs, farmers are often unable to repay their crop loans.

We must provide them with comprehensive pension insurance.
Therefore, in addition to the medical insurance provisions 'ayushman Bharat' and the life and disability insurance provisions 'pradhan Mantri kiwanyojana 'and 'pradhan Mantri Suraksha Bima Yojana ', our government is proposing to launch a large pension yojana for unorganized sector workers with a monthly income of up to 15,000.
The pension yojana shall provide them with a guaranteed pension of £ 3,000 per month from the age of 60 and pay a small amount of affordable pension per month at their working age.

We are ready to become a five Trillion dollar economy in the next five years and hope to become Ten Trillion dollar economy in the next eight years.
In the Indian spirit, anything good should be given, aroused, created and done well in ten directions.
So I will plan our vision for the ten most important aspects in 2030.
The first aspect of this vision is the construction of material and social infrastructure for ten Trillion's dollar economy and the facilitation of living.
It will include the next generation of infrastructure for roads, railways, harbors, airports, urban transport, natural gas and electricity transmission, and inland waterways.
In terms of social infrastructure, each family will have a roof and will live in a healthy, clean and healthy environment.
We will also establish a high quality, science-oriented education system led by a first-class faculty of excellence.
The second aspect of our vision is to create a digital India that covers every sector of the economy, every corner of the country, and affects the lives of all Indians.
The digital infrastructure and digital economy in 2030 will build on the success of the digitization of government processes and private transactions in recent years.
Our youth will lead our efforts with countless starting points.
Ups created digital India and created millions of jobs in this ecological environmentsystem.
Making India a pollution-free country with green mother earth and blue sky is the third dimension of our vision.
India will drive electric vehicles as renewable energy becomes a major source of energy supply.
India will lead the world's transportation revolution through electric vehicles and energy storage devices, reducing imports --
Provide energy security to our people.
The use of modern digital technology to expand rural industrialism to create a large number of jobs is the fourth dimension of our vision.
This will be based on the method of making grass in India.
Grass-roots clusters, structures and mechanisms including micro-enterprises, rural industries and start-ups
Ups is everywhere in the country.
India is becoming a global manufacturing hub for industries including automotive and electronics, defense and medical devices.
Our rivers and bodies of water are the pillars of our lives.
Our government is actively working to clean up the Ganga river.
Our fifth aspect of our vision for India in 2030 is clean rivers, providing safe drinking water for all Indians, using micro-water to sustain and nourish life, and efficient use of irrigation water
Irrigation technology.
India's long coastline has the potential to be a force for the economy, especially by developing the blue economy to ensure a better standard of living and quality for a large number of residents in the coastal area.
Our efforts in the Sagarmala Project will be expanded and we will develop other inland waterways more quickly.
Our coastline and sea water provide the impetus for the development and growth of India, which is the sixth aspect of our vision.
The seventh dimension of our vision is facing the outer sky.
Our space program-the launch of gagayan, India-
The launch of an Indian astronaut into space by 2022 reflects our vision.
Let India itself
Adequate food, export to the world to meet their food needs and produce food in the most organic way, is the eighth aspect of our vision.
High agricultural production and productivity will be realized through modern agricultural practice and value-added.
We will focus on an integrated approach to the processing, preservation, packaging and maintenance of agricultural products and food chains.
Healthy India is the ninth dimension of our vision.
We will build a healthy society with the goal of a healthy and secure environment and the support of the necessary health infrastructure.
My government has launched the plan of Ayushman pohardo.
By 2030, we will strive to build a pain-free health care and a fully functional health system for all.
Such a healthy India was established with the participation of women who enjoy equal rights and care for their safety and empowerment.
Our vision can be achieved through the Indian team
Our employees work with elected governments to transform India into a minimum government governance nation.
This is the tenth dimension.
We will have a proactive and responsible bureaucracy in India in 2030, which will be seen as an institution that is friendly to the people.
With this comprehensive ten
We will create an India where poverty, malnutrition, littering and illiteracy will be the past.
India will be a modern, technology-driven, high-growth, fair and transparent society.
The revenue and expenditure estimates I introduced today link the fiscal deficit for 201920 at 3. 4% of GDP.
We will keep the deficit at 3.
2018 3%-
Further measures were taken in 2019 to consolidate the fiscal deficit-20.
However, given the need to provide income support to farmers, we provided Rs 20,000 in 2018
RE and '75,000 crore 201920 BE.

In order for these enterprises to be responsible to the people, we have been pursuing the asset management agenda of public enterprises.
There are currently 57 CPSEs listed, with a total market value of more than 13 years.
During 2017, the government received more than 1 pound from the withdrawal proceeds. 18.
We are confident to achieve the goal of Rs 80 this year.
We have been moving towards the goal of achieving a fiscal deficit of 3% by 2020 --21.
India's debt-to-GDP ratio is 46. 2017 5%-18.
According to the FRBM Act, by 2024, the debt-to-GDP ratio of the Indian government should drop to 40%. 25.
With the completion of the fiscal deficit consolidation plan, we will now focus on debt consolidation.
Last year, our government promised to reform stamp duty on financial securities transactions.
I propose, through the financial act, the necessary amendments in this regard.
The proposed amendments will lead to a very streamlined system.
Stamp duty will be imposed on an instrument related to a transaction and stamp duty will be charged at one place through the stock exchange.
Such tariffs will be seamlessly shared with the state government on the basis of the purchase of customer residences.
On behalf of the Indian people and our government, first of all, I would like to thank all of our taxpayers for their valuable contribution to national construction and to providing a better life for the poor and marginalized groups of society.
Your taxes provide dignity to our sisters and mothers through toilet and gas connections.
Your taxes pay the electricity connection to the poor who have lived in the dark for generations.
The taxes you pay will provide health care for 50 crore siblings and children.
It is through your first-class pension that you ensure the respect, dignity and safe future of our retired jawans.
Thank you taxpayers.
Because we have had major tax reforms over the last four and a half years, both taxes and tax bases have increased significantly, we have made progress in achieving a modest high tax compliance system.
Therefore, some of the benefits of tax reform must also be passed on to middle-class taxpayers, which is just and fair.
With this in mind, I propose to further reduce the tax burden on these taxpayers.
Although, as usual, the main tax proposals will be presented in the regular budget, small taxpayers, especially middle-class, working-class, pension recipients, at the beginning of this year, older people need to identify their taxes in their minds.
Therefore, proposals relating to such persons in particular should not wait.
Therefore, although the current income tax rate will continue for fiscal 2019-
20. I put forward the following suggestions: when the annual taxable income of individual taxpayers reaches '5 lakhs ', they will receive a full tax refund, so they do not need to pay any income tax.
So even those with a total income of £ 6.
50 if lakhs invests in provident funds, specific savings, insurance, etc. , they may not have to pay any income tax.
In fact, in addition to additional deductions such as interest on housing loans up to 2 lakh, interest on educational loans, contributions to the national pension plan, medical insurance, medical expenses for the elderly, etc, people with higher incomes do not have to pay any taxes.
This will provide tax benefits of 18,500 crore for approximately 3 crore middle class taxpayers, including self-employed, small businesses, small businessmen, working class, pensioners and seniors.
For salaried personnel, the standard deduction is increasing from the current '40,000 'to '50,000 '.
This will provide an additional tax benefit of Rs 4,700 for more than 3 working class and pension recipients.
At present, if one has more than one rent of his own, the nominal rent income tax shall be paidoccupied house.
Taking into account the difficulties of the middle class having to maintain their families in two places due to work, children's education, parental care, etc.
I propose to waive the income tax for the second nominal rentoccupied house.
The TDS threshold for bank/Post Office deposit interest is being raised from "10,000" to "40,000 ".
This will benefit small and non-depositors. Work spouse.
In addition, it is recommended to raise the TDS threshold for deducting the rent tax from "1,80 000" to "2,40 000" to reduce the burden on small taxpayers.
According to Section 54 of the Income Tax Act, the rollover benefits of capital gains will increase from investing in one home to investing in two homes, with taxpayer capital gains up to 2 crore.
This benefit can be used once a lifetime.
In order to provide more housing under affordable housing, 80-
The International Bar Association of the Income Tax Act will be extended for another year. e.
Housing projects approved by March 31, 2020.
In addition, to drive the real estate sector, I propose to extend the tax exemption period for nominal rent, unsold inventory from one year to two years, starting at the end of the year when the project was completed.
This is not only an interim budget, Madam Speaker, but also a medium for the national development process.
All the changes we are witnessing are due to the enthusiasm of our people.
This is only due to them.
Development has become a mass
The movement of our government during its administration.
With the help of the people, we will turn India into the world's leading country.
We laid the foundation with them.
They will support the construction of a magnificent building.
We have given decisive leadership with clear intentions, transparent policies, and resolute integrity.
With this, I recommend the budget to the house in August.
