In a U-turn, Punjab govt notifies VB-G RAM G scheme

Punjab's AAP government has notified the Viksit Bharat Guarantee Rozgar and Ajeevika Mission Gramin (VB-G RAM G) scheme, effective July 1, despite previously opposing it. The state assembly had unanimously passed a resolution against the Act in December, accusing the Centre of undermining MGNREGA. The Congress party has questioned the AAP's decision, linking it to potential compromises with the BJP and the ongoing chief minister controversy.
