‘Step-motherly treatment to Delhi yet again’ | ‘Budget offers no respite from twin problems of inflation & unemployment’
Delhi paid Rs 1.75 lakh cr tax, got only Rs 325 cr: CM

Highlights

» CM accuses Centre of giving the state a ‘stepmotherly’ treatment with allocation of Rs 1,168.01 crore same as last fiscal in the Union Budget 23-24 presented in the Parliament

» ‘There is no relief from inflation in this Budget. On the contrary, this budget will increase inflation. There is no concrete plan to remove unemployment. Unfortunate to reduce education budget from 2.64 per cent to 2.5 per cent. Reducing health budget from 2.2 per cent to 1.98 per cent is harmful’

» AAP questioned Union Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman’s claim about doubling of per capita income since 2014, saying it is ‘Amrit Kaal’ for Prime Minister Narendra Modi, not for the common people of the country

NEW DELHI: Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal accused the Centre of giving the state a “step-motherly” treatment with allocation of Rs 1,168.01 crore same as last fiscal in the Union Budget 2023-24 presented in the Parliament on Wednesday.

The allocation for Delhi was Rs 1,168 crore in 2022-23 that had later declined to Rs 977.02 crore in the revised estimates for the year.
