INC Kargil Alleges Bias in Recent Capex Budget Meeting of LAHDC Kargil

Congress Alleges Bias in Recent Planning and Budget Committee Meeting of LAHDC Kargil Kargil, July 16: The Indian National Congress has alleged bias and discrimination in the recently held Planning and Budget Committee meeting of the Ladakh Autonomous Hill Development Council (LAHDC), Kargil. Congress councillors claimed that the allocation of funds and selection of developmental projects were not carried out in a fair and transparent manner. The party leaders alleged that several proposals submitted by Congress councillors were ignored, while priority was given to projects from selected constituencies. They demanded equitable distribution of development funds and urged the Council administration to ensure transparency and justice in future planning exercises. The controversy comes amid recent political developments in the Hill Council, where the ₹255.26 crore District Capex Budget for 2026–27 was approved during the General Council Meeting, despite a boycott by several Congress members. Congress leaders stated that they will continue to raise the issue and seek corrective measures to ensure balanced development across all constituencies of Kargil district.
