•Congress criticized the Modi government over the new VB G RAM G Act, calling it an example of 'First Announce, Subsequently Think' governance.
•Jairam Ramesh highlighted a media report claiming the Viksit Bharat – Guarantee for Rozgar and Ajeevika Mission (Gramin) Bill, 2025, still needs steps for implementation.
•The new rural employment legislation replaces the Congress-led UPA government’s flagship scheme, MGNREGA.
