With the approval of the provisions of the 2025-26 state budget by the Vidhan Sabha, around 90 more Sankalp will be fulfilled in the upcoming financial year.
The Chief Minister highlighted that in line with Prime Minister Sh.

Continuing this initiative, a total of 11 meetings were held with various stakeholders of Haryana’s economy to invite suggestions, resulting in 1,592 recommendations.
He said that taking this tradition a step further, an online portal was launched on December 10, 2024. Through this portal, people from across Haryana sent 8,963 suggestions from the comfort of their homes. Additionally, some recommendations were received via email and letters, while others were submitted in written form by citizens. In total, nearly 11,000 suggestions were carefully analyzed, and the best ones were incorporated into the budget. By including inputs from all stakeholders, a balanced budget has been crafted for the welfare of every section of society, shared Sh. Nayab Singh Saini.
