Puno mayoral candidate misstates municipal investment budget; actual figure S/50.2M

Hernán Crisisto, mayoral candidate for Puno, claimed the provincial municipality has only S/10 million for investments. Official data shows the initial 2026 budget was S/19.6 million, rising to S/50.2 million by September 8. The claim is false, but the discrepancy highlights campaign rhetoric ahead of local elections.
