Criticising the Union Budget presented by the Modi government, Chhattisgarh Pradesh Congress Committee spokesperson Kamaljeet ‘Pintu’ has termed it anti-village, anti-poor, anti-farmer and anti-middle class. He alleged that the budget offers no concrete relief to farmers, unemployed youth or small traders, while shifting welfare burdens to states and prioritising corporate interests.

As part of the “Moor Gaon, Moor Pani” campaign, a cluster-level training camp was successfully conducted in Gendatola village under Chhuriya block, Rajnandgaon district. The session, graced by Zila Panchayat President Smt. Kiran Vaishnav, emphasized rainwater harvesting and conservation methods for rural communities. Local leaders, women’s groups, and villagers participated actively in the initiative, which also included a tree plantation under the “One Tree in Mother's Name” campaign.
