<h1>Disaster rehabilitation funding and welfare allocations prioritized in state budget despite fiscal strain, with housing and scholarship initiatives announced.</h1> The budget presents a rehabilitation project for Wayanad landslide victims and seeks central assistance not provided in the Union Budget, while committing state funds to complete rehabilitation. It sustains social welfare and development spending amid fiscal stress through targeted allocations for scholarships (including restoration for early school minority pupils), pension and salary revision arrears with PF integration, research, vehicle replacement, wildlife response, infrastructure projects, and a KIIFB allocation with plans for a revenue generation mechanism. A pilot housing for tourism scheme and legislative timetable for budget debate are also set out.
