Shimla, March 19:
In a development during the ongoing Budget Session of the Himachal Pradesh Assembly on Thursday, Chief Minister Sukhvinder Singh Sukhu presented a supplementary budget of ₹40,461 crore in the House.
Placing the supplementary demands for grants before the Assembly, the Chief Minister also introduced the Himachal Pradesh Appropriation Bill, 2026.
The bill, which authorizes the government to withdraw funds from the state treasury to meet its expenditure, was subsequently passed by the House through a voice vote.
The move is seen as part of the government’s effort to meet additional financial requirements during the current fiscal, amid mounting expenditure pressures.
