The Union Cabinet on September 30, 2026, approved three major measures covering agriculture, renewable-energy infrastructure and urban traffic management. The decisions include higher Minimum Support Prices (MSP) for six Rabi crops for the 2027–28 marketing season, a ₹1.86 lakh crore Green Energy Corridor programme, and a ₹1,789.52 crore Intelligent Traffic Management System (ITMS) for Delhi.
The first major decision concerns farmers. The government approved higher MSPs for all six mandated Rabi crops. Wheat MSP, for example, has been increased by ₹25 per quintal to ₹2,610. Safflower received the largest increase among the six crops, while rapeseed and mustard also received a substantial MSP increase. The measure is intended to provide farmers with higher benchmark prices ahead of the Rabi marketing season.
The Cabinet also approved the Green Energy Corridor Phase-III programme with an outlay of approximately ₹1.86 lakh crore. The project is aimed at strengthening India’s power-transmission network and supporting the integration and evacuation of renewable electricity. Reports say the programme is designed to facilitate the evacuation of up to 135 GW of renewable energy, helping expand transmission capacity as solar and wind generation increases.
The third decision focuses on Delhi’s traffic system. The Cabinet approved ₹1,789.52 crore for an Intelligent Traffic Management System to improve traffic flow, road safety and incident response. The system will use real-time data, artificial intelligence and automated enforcement. It is planned to cover 42 major traffic corridors and will be implemented in three phases over 24 months. Features include adaptive traffic signals, live traffic information and priority clearance for emergency vehicles such as ambulances.
Together, the three decisions cover key areas of India’s economy and public infrastructure—support for agricultural markets, expansion of renewable-energy transmission and technology-driven urban mobility.
