flag Himachal Pradesh's Chief Minister Sukhvinder Singh Sukhu led a protest in Shimla on December 29, 2025, against the central government's plan to discontinue the MGNREGA scheme, calling it anti-rural and harmful to millions of rural families. flag The state government criticized the shift from local, panchayat-driven planning to centralized control, warning it undermines grassroots democracy and weakens implementation. flag The state will now bear a larger financial burden, covering 10% of wages and an additional Rs 80 daily, while MNREGA officer salaries in Zila Parishads are being suspended. flag The Congress also opposed a proposed reduction in apple import duties, citing harm to local farmers. flag Protests are set to expand across districts.
