<b>C P Gurnani</b>: Digital gets a major focus

As expected, the Budget focused on the key priorities of the government about rural economy, poverty alleviation and progressive reforms. Some steps also revolved around revitalising the SME sector. One of the major hallmarks of the Budget was the focus on creating the right kind of digital infrastructure as the country prepares to embrace technology in a major way. The finance minister announced a slew of proposals to boost the digital economy. It involved enhanced cyber security measures through imbibing a culture of Innovation at school level or creating a technology platform for offering online courses.
