In MP Budget 2026, Mohan government announced 1 lakh solar pumps, 472 e-buses, road scheme worth Rs 21,630 crore and a big budget for women’s health sector. Know what benefits farmers, youth and women will get and what are the major announcements.
When Mohan government’s third budget was presented in the Madhya Pradesh Assembly today, the political temperature also increased simultaneously. Finance Minister Jagdish Deora described it as a budget that will provide “work to every hand, employment to every youth and justice to every woman”. In his words, this budget is a roadmap to take the state forward in line with the Prime Minister’s vision of a developed India. However, opposition Congress MLAs created a ruckus during the budget speech, following which Assembly Speaker Narendra Singh Tomar directed to maintain order in the House.
472 e-buses in 6 cities, speeding up urban transport
The Finance Minister said that 472 e-buses have been started in Bhopal, Indore, Gwalior, Jabalpur, Sagar and Ujjain. This step is considered important towards reducing pollution and providing affordable, modern public transport. A total provision of ₹1,27,555 crore has been budgeted for women’s welfare schemes and ₹23,747 crore for the health sector—underscoring the government’s focus on the social sector.

Rs 21,630 crore road scheme, emphasis on rural connectivity
“Mukhyamantri Majra-Tola Road Scheme” worth ₹21,630 crore has been approved in the budget. The government claims that the promises made in the last budget speech have been implemented. “Kendriya Mukhyamantri Vrindavan Yojana” and “Ahilya Bai Kaushal Vikas Yojana” have been launched for rural development, which aim to accelerate rural infrastructure and skill upgradation.
Provision of 1 lakh solar pumps, Rs 3000 crore for farmers
Making a big announcement in the agriculture sector, the Finance Minister said that 1 lakh solar pumps will be made available to farmers at a cost of ₹ 3000 crore. This is expected to reduce irrigation costs and reduce energy dependence. Along with this, a total assistance of ₹ 12,000 will continue every year to eligible families under Kisan Samman Nidhi and Chief Minister Kisan Kalyan Yojana.
Bhavantar and farmer development: an attempt to protect against market risk
The government says that due to the success of Bhavantar Yojana, other states have also shown interest. Now under “Krishak Unnati Yojana” a provision has been made to provide special incentives to farmers. It has also been claimed that 21.42 lakh hectare area has been registered for organic and natural farming, which can be considered an important step towards sustainable agriculture.
Analysis: Balancing growth, employment and social security?
This budget conveys a message of balanced development through major provisions in urban transport, rural roads, agricultural solarisation and women’s health sector. However, the opposition is concerned that along with the announcements, the speed and transparency of ground implementation will also be equally important.
The real test in the coming months will be how quickly the announced schemes come to fruition and to what extent their direct benefits reach the youth and farmers. If implementation remains strong, this budget can give a new direction to the economy of Madhya Pradesh.
