STATS AND SPIRITUALITY
It had to be a first. Hours after the Union finance minister Nirmala Sitharaman presented the budget for 2026-27, Prime Minister Narendra Modi flew to Dera Sachkhand Ballan in Punjab to mark Guru Ravidas Jayanti. Never has a prime minister left the national capital on Budget Day. So, while analysts parsed deficits and growth, Modi was busy bowing before Sant Niranjan Dass, the Dera chief and a recent Padma Shri awardee. Rooted in the Ad Dharm and Ravidassia movements, Dera Ballan has long embodied Dalit self-respect in Punjab's Doaba region. With his visit, Modi drew that history into the national frame, recasting a symbol of spiritual autonomy as one of cultural unity.
