<h1>Punjab Budget 2025-26 Criticized for Ignoring Women, Farming, and Industry; Rising Debt Concerns Highlighted</h1> Opposition MLAs criticized the Punjab state budget for 2025-26, presented by Finance Minister Harpal Singh Cheema, as 'directionless and aimless,' accusing the AAP government of failing to fulfill its promise of providing Rs 1,000 per month to women. The budget, totaling Rs 2.36 lakh crore, includes a Rs 10 lakh health insurance cover for families and initiatives for drug control and holistic development. Critics pointed out the lack of provisions for women, the farming sector, and industrial promotion. Concerns were also raised about the state's rising debt-to-GSDP ratio and unfulfilled revenue promises from sand mining.
