Where is Punjab heading with alarming levels of government debt?
Punjab’s latest Budget, presented by Harpal Singh Cheema in the presence of Bhagwant Singh Mann, promises ₹1,000 per month for women under the “Mukh Mantri Mawan Dhiyan Satkar Yojana”, along with big allocations for welfare, infrastructure and social schemes ahead of the 2027 elections.
पंजाब का ताज़ा बजट, जिसे हरपाल सिंह चीमा ने भगवंत सिंह मान की मौजूदगी में पेश किया, “मुख्यमंत्री मावां धियां सत्कार योजना” के तहत महिलाओं को हर महीने ₹1,000 देने का वादा करता है। इसके साथ ही 2027 के चुनावों से पहले कल्याण, बुनियादी ढांचे और सामाजिक योजनाओं के लिए बड़े आवंटन की घोषणा भी की गई है।
With the Lok Sabha set to debate an Opposition-backed resolution seeking the removal of Speaker Om Birla over allegations of partisan conduct, and both the BJP and the Congress issuing whips to ensure full attendance from March 9 to 11, the coming days could witness an intense political showdown inside Parliament.
