Finance Minister said the Centre is working on establishing a medical college in every district of the country and increasing medical and engineering seats by setting up more institutes. Asked about the digital university, Ms Sitharaman said significant progress has been made on this front.

"Several far-flung areas that lack coverage of the conventional universities. So Prime Minister Narendra Modi envisioned the concept of the digital university to utilize technology for ensuring the reach of universities to these areas," she said. The Government of India in its Budget 2022-2023 has announced the establishment of a digital university. The university will provide access to students across the country for world-class quality universal education with personalized learning experiences at their doorsteps.
