Haryana is set to become a wedding paradise with three new destinations at Pijonr, Kharakho’da, and Manesar, as announced by Chief Minister Nayab Singh Saini in the 2026-27 budget. On March 3 in Sonipat, Saini praised the document for its broad appeal, covering women, youth, farmers, and the poor comprehensively.
‘This is the budget that powers PM Modi’s Viksit Bharat dream through Viksit Haryana,’ he stated. The Rs 2.23 lakh crore outlay zeroes in on rural revitalization, introducing ‘Haryana Agri Discom’—a farmer-centric power company to streamline electricity distribution and cut costs.
Echoing PM Modi’s vision to stem outbound wedding travel, the CM detailed opulent venues that will provide five-star amenities locally. ‘We’ll reverse the flow: our citizens stay home, international visitors flock here,’ Saini envisioned, projecting a tourism surge.
Economic indicators are optimistic: fiscal deficit pegged at Rs 40,293.17 crore (2.65% GSDP), revenue deficit at 0.87%, effective revenue deficit at 0.41%, capital expenditure at 1.86%, and effective capex at 2.32%. These metrics reflect disciplined planning amid ambitious spends.
Saini’s second outing as Finance Minister delivers a balanced sheet that marries fiscal caution with bold bets on sectors like agri-power and event tourism. As Haryana builds these wedding hubs, expect a ripple effect boosting hospitality, employment, and the local economy, cementing the state’s progressive stature.
