Amrit Kaal is a term used by the Indian government to describe a 25-year period of economic growth and development in India. The term comes from Vedic astrology and refers to a crucial period when the gates to greater pleasure for humans, angels, and other creatures are opened. Prime Minister Narendra Modi first used the term in 2021 during the 75th Independence Day celebrations, when he unveiled a new roadmap for the country for the next 25 years. The goal of Amrit Kaal is to improve the quality of life for Indian citizens, reduce the development gap between rural and urban areas, welcome new technology, and minimize government interference in peoples lives. In the Union Budget 2023 speech, Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman referred to the term repeatedly, stating that the vision for Amrit Kaal includes a technology-driven and knowledge-based economy, with strong public finances and a robust financial sector.
