Delhi Budget - Aam Aadmi's Budget

The Karma theory says that what you do comes back to you. Delhiites did wonderful Karma by voting for AAP and they are now reaping the benefits of their action. Already they have the benefits of free water and electricity at half the rates.

Now most of the govt officials in Delhi are scared to ask for bribes. The Inspector Raj and Raid Raj of government officials have come down. The direct tax collection in Delhi has gone up by 38%, people are happy paying taxes over there because they know that the money would be used for their own benefit. Delhi Government has set up a committee to review unnecessary licences that are required for businesses so that doing business in Delhi becomes easier.

Today Manish Sisodia the deputy chief minister of Delhi presented the budget and the two biggest features of this budget are focus on health care and education. The allocation for health care has gone up by 45% and the budgetary allocation for education has gone up by 106%, whereas in the central government's budget  the allocation for education has gone down by 16% and the allocation for health care has gone down by 15%, in spite of the fact that education and health care needs lot of budgetary support in India.
