The budget session of the Delhi Assembly started on 24 March with the Kheer celebrations. This was the first time such a program was organized before the assembly session began. Chief Minister Rekha Gupta presented a CAG report on the functioning of Delhi Transport Corporation (DTC) in the House. Let’s see what announcements can be made in the budget today …
Focus will be on these areas in the budget
Women Samriddhi Yojana can be announced and separate funds will be allocated for this. The construction of the Yamuna River Front may be announced. The Delhi Jal Board can get more budget for this. Emphasis can be laid on the cleaning of roads, sewers, rural areas of Delhi and development of infrastructure in Delhi. Emphasis can be laid on improving health services in Delhi. Announcement of new hospitals is possible. Free electricity and water plans can be announced to continue.
Women’s prosperity scheme
In the resolution letter issued for the Delhi Assembly Elections 2025, the BJP announced to launch the Samriddhi Yojana for women. Under this scheme, women of poor families of Delhi will be given Rs 2500 every month. The Delhi government has sanctioned Rs 5,100 crore for the scheme, but the registration for the scheme has not yet started, although the scheme has been launched on International Women’s Day (March 8). This scheme will benefit 20 lakh women. The Chief Minister can make a big announcement about this scheme in the budget today.
Property tax
The Delhi government today can make a big announcement about property tax in the budget. The BJP government is under pressure to make any announcement regarding property tax, as the Aam Aadmi Party government had waived all the dues of people paying home tax for the year 2024-25. If they pay the house tax of 2024-25, then they will get tax exemption even in the new financial year. The AAP could not form the government, but now there is definitely pressure on the BJP to announce this.
Discount on electricity and water
The BJP government can announce a discount on electricity and water in the budget. The Aam Aadmi Party government had announced to provide 200 units of free electricity to the people of Delhi. Each family is also provided 20,000 liters of free water every month. Therefore, it is expected that the BJP government will be successful in implementing this scheme.
Yamuna cleaning
In the Delhi budget, the BJP government has made a big announcement regarding the cleanliness of Yamuna. The BJP also raised this issue during the election and politics was very hot. There was a lot of uproar from Delhi to Haryana. Therefore, it is expected that the BJP government can take a big decision regarding the cleaning of the Yamuna river.
