India has a lot of young people, which could be good for the economy.
The government wants to help young people find jobs and start their own businesses.
They plan to make it easier for people to get money and help to start businesses.
The focus will be on helping people in small towns and villages start businesses to create jobs.
The goal is to create local economies, and make it easier for people to create their own ventures, leading to job creation.
