The Union Territory of Jammu and Kashmir has seen significant financial allocations in recent budgets aimed at driving its development and modernization. With a focus on infrastructure, social services, and economic growth, the budget outlines a comprehensive plan to boost the region’s growth trajectory and improve the quality of life for its residents. Infrastructure development is a cornerstone of J&K’s budgetary allocations. Significant funds are dedicated to upgrading and expanding road networks, including the construction of new highways and the maintenance of existing roads. The ongoing projects, such as the Jammu-Srinagar National Highway and the strategic Udhampur-Srinagar-Baramulla Rail Link, receive substantial investments. This is intended to enhance connectivity within the region and with the rest of India, thus facilitating economic activity and tourism. Additionally, there is a concerted effort to improve urban infrastructure. Projects to upgrade water supply systems, sewage treatment facilities, and waste management systems in major cities and towns are being implemented.
