THE BJP-led Assam government on Monday presented a populist budget to woo tea garden workers, lower income group people, farmers and youth as Assembly elections are due early next year.
Presenting the ₹2.63 lakh crore budget for the 2025-26 financial year with a deficit of ₹620.27 crore, Finance Minister Ajanta Neog announced one-time financial assistance of ₹5,000 each for the state's 6.8 lakh tea garden workers. This will include both permanent and casual workers.
The government is extending "gratitude" toward the tea garden community on the occasion of 200 years of Assam Tea.
