Pune, February 15 – The Department of Economics at Savitribai Phule Pune University (SPPU) has once again taken the initiative to bridge the gap between complex budget policies and public understanding. The Union Budget Exhibition, inaugurated on Friday by Dr. Parag Kalkar, Pro Vice-Chancellor of SPPU, aims to educate students and the general public about various aspects of the Union Budget 2024-25.

He highlighted how such exhibitions play a vital role in making economic knowledge accessible to all.


Dr. Mansi Gore, the event coordinator, pointed out that this budget analysis is a part of the New Education Policy (NEP) and carries two academic credits for participating students. This integration ensures that financial literacy is not just an extracurricular activity but an essential part of academic growth.

The Head of the Economics Department, Prof. Surbhi Jain, reiterated that the exhibition is an annual event aimed at helping the general public understand budget policies and their implementation. The event showcases various aspects of the budget through student-led presentations and digital displays, making it an interactive and informative experience.


Some of the key topics covered include:


Green Budget – Policies focusing on sustainable development and environmental conservation.


Gender Budgeting – Government allocations aimed at empowering women and gender equality.


Government Schemes – Analysis of welfare programs and their impact on society.


Health & Education – Budget allocation for public healthcare and education infrastructure.


Public Debt & Economic Surveys – Understanding India’s financial planning and economic forecasts.

The exhibition also features a digital display section, making budget awareness more engaging and accessible to visitors.
