PM Modi Approves Five Major Decisions, Including World’s Largest Museum
Union Minister for Railways, Information and Broadcasting Ashwini Vaishnaw announced that the Union Cabinet, chaired by Prime Minister Narendra Modi, has approved five major decisions aimed at strengthening India’s cultural heritage, infrastructure, agriculture and entrepreneurship.
The key decisions include the establishment of the Yuge Yugeen Bharat Museum, an 8.5-kilometre Metro Rail project connecting Noida and Greater Noida, and a fertiliser subsidy of ₹62,370 crore for the Rabi season to support farmers. The Cabinet has also approved a ₹5,000 crore Credit Guarantee Fund under the Pradhan Mantri Mudra Yojana to encourage young entrepreneurs and a ₹4,111 crore Credit Guarantee Fund under the Stand-Up India scheme to support SC, ST and women entrepreneurs.
Highlighting the ambitious museum project, Vaishnaw said the Yuge Yugeen Bharat Museum will be established in the historic North and South Blocks in New Delhi, whose offices have already been relocated to Kartavya Bhawan and Seva Teerth. Developed at an estimated cost of ₹3,230 crore, the museum will showcase India's rich traditions, cultural heritage and entire civilizational journey. The project will preserve the original architecture of both iconic buildings, with a Metro station also being developed adjacent to the museum.
The five decisions reflect the government's focus on preserving India's civilizational legacy while accelerating urban connectivity, supporting farmers and expanding access to entrepreneurship opportunities across the country.
