C.T. Ravi, a BJP MLC, criticized Congress leaders for spreading misinformation about the replacement of the Mahatma Gandhi National Rural Employment Guarantee Act (MGNREGA) with the Viksit Bharat-Guarantee for Rozgar and Ajeevika Mission (Gramin) (VB-G RAM G) Act, 2025. Ravi argued that the changes aim to prevent corruption and strengthen the program, which he highlighted has seen significant funding increases under Prime Minister Narendra Modi. He also criticized the removal of Mahatma Gandhi's name from the act as not disrespectful but rather a necessary step for achieving "Rama Rajya."
