AAP govt in Punjab makes u-turn, notifies Centre's VB-G RAM G scheme

Punjab's AAP government has notified the Union's rural employment scheme, effective July 1, a stark contrast to its December resolution opposing it. This sudden reversal has drawn sharp criticism from the Congress, demanding an explanation for the policy shift and any potential BJP understanding. Sources suggest the move aims to secure central funds ahead of elections, following a recent ₹1500 crore borrowing notification.
