<h1>Chairman says ruling party delivered 80-90% of budget pledges, restarted water projects, hired staff and funded development</h1> The state finance commission chairman stated the ruling party government implemented over 80-90% of its budget announcements and advanced major water-supply projects previously stalled under the prior administration, alleging political obstruction by the former government in intergovernmental water agreements. Officials reported extensive recruitments with a published recruitment calendar, measures to secure fertiliser supply and curb black marketing, and allocation of development funds across all assembly constituencies. The government also touted direct grievance redressal by the chief minister and new social-environmental schemes; the opposition's prior pandemic-era conduct was criticized as part of the political dispute.
