Chief Minister Pushkar Singh Dhami tabled the Uttarakhand supplementary budget for 2026-27 on 27 October 2026. He presented the Rs 7,844.18 crore package at Bhararisain in Gairsain. Notably, it gives special weight to farmers and the rural economy. As a result, the state’s total budget for the year rises to Rs 1,19,547.39 crore.
Size and Structure of the Package
Capital expenditure takes Rs 4,164.32 crore, more than half of the package. Meanwhile, revenue expenditure accounts for Rs 3,679.86 crore. The original budget stood at Rs 1,11,703.21 crore. Later, on 28 October, the Assembly passed the supplementary budget amid Opposition protests.
Rs 1,100 Crore for Paddy and Wheat Procurement
The largest farm allocation is Rs 1,100 crore under the Annapurti Scheme. The state will use it to buy paddy and wheat from farmers. In addition, Rs 70 crore goes to the JICA-assisted Climate Resilient Rainfed Agriculture Project. Also, the PM Formalisation of Micro Food Processing Enterprises (PMFME) scheme gets Rs 35 crore.
Support for Cooperatives, Fisheries and Livestock
The Deendayal Upadhyay Sahkarita Kisan Kalyan Yojana, a cooperative farmers’ welfare scheme, receives Rs 20 crore. Similarly, farmer pensions get Rs 9 crore. For fisheries, the trout promotion scheme gets Rs 28 crore. Furthermore, the government set aside Rs 1 crore to launch a new beekeeping policy. Finally, Rs 9 crore will fund new gau sadans (cow shelters).
What Is a Supplementary Budget?
Article 205 of the Constitution governs supplementary grants in the states. So, the Governor lays a supplementary statement when approved funds prove insufficient. Likewise, the rule applies when a new service needs spending outside the annual budget. In Uttarakhand, the Budget Directorate under the Finance Department prepares these demands.
