💨 Abstract

Kerala's 2025-26 budget, presented by Finance Minister K N Balagopal, was hailed by Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan as a "creative intervention" driving Kerala's development vision. The budget aims to strengthen development, protect consumers, and focus on education, healthcare, infrastructure, and the welfare of the people. However, the opposition Congress criticized it as "hollow" and lacking realism.
