What happened

Well supportedReported by 7 independent outlets

The Government of Assam tabled the 2026-27 state budget, noting that capital expenditure increased nearly tenfold, rising from Rs 2,951 crore in 2015-16 to approximately Rs 29,000 crore. Simultaneously, the implementation of the Government of India's SVAMITVA scheme is facing severe delays in Assam, preventing the issuance of property cards to rural inhabitants.

Why it matters

Some supportBrind's analysis of the reports

The budget reflects major investments in infrastructure, healthcare, and power, alongside plans to provide two lakh jobs. However, the lag in SVAMITVA implementation, which aims to provide a Record of Rights to rural property owners, is depriving villagers of accessing bank loans and other credit facilities.
