Union Budget 2026 ne rural economy aur traditional industries ko revive karne ke liye ek strong, structured policy approach dikhaya hai. Khadi, handicrafts aur artisan-based MSMEs ko modern market ke saath integrate karne ke liye government ne cluster-driven development, technology infusion aur e-commerce linkage ko core strategy banaya hai.
