US EditionHaryana CM Saini Criticizes INDIA Bloc for Misleading on VB-G RAM G Scheme
Haryana CM Nayab Singh Saini calls the VB-G-RAM-G law a key reform to increase workdays, wages, and transparency while targeting corruption in rural employment schemes.
- On January 5, 2026, Haryana Chief Minister Nayab Singh Saini accused the Congress party and the INDIA bloc of spreading false information and defended VB-G-RAM-G as a fundamental overhaul ensuring more workdays, higher wages, transparent payments, and durable assets.
- After the Bill cleared Parliament in December, the Congress announced a nationwide MGNREGA Bachao Sangram from January 10 to February 25 to demand withdrawal of the VB-G-RAM-G Act, which President Droupadi Murmu approved on December 21.
- Citing audit findings, Saini alleged funds were routinely siphoned off in 5,915 out of 13,304 gram panchayats in Punjab, with no recovery or action against corrupt contractors and officials.
- Targeting Punjab's response, Saini called the Punjab Assembly resolution political and urged Bhagwant Mann to raise wages to Rs 400 from Rs 339 instead of theatrics.
- Turning to historical allegations, Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath said, `These are the very people who looted national resources for a long time, and they are now questioning this legislation`, the Chief Minister said.
