@anmolmonga1933 karnataka has budget surplus due to the outgoing Bommai government. Compare Karnataka's situation when kumarasawmy left. Delhi's budget is not in surplus. They are struggling to pay professors' and teachers' fees. During COVID, they went and asked the centre 5000 crores. Before COVID, AK was beating his chest that Delhi has surplus. Delhi has not paid the dues of Jal Board. Delhi jal board had an outstanding debt of 20,000 crore in 2019, according to a CAG report. No audit has been done since then. The current debt esrimates is close 70,000 crore.

@buttofthejoke you know that india imports 85% crude, so giving free rides is only going to make india lose forex reserves. If those laborers can increase exports by using free bus rides, i am ok with that. But just earning back in rupees is only going to demolish our current account deficits. Thinl again....

Under Modi, the forex reserve as a percentage of GDP has been steadily growing. UPA left with 12% forex to gdp. Now it has gone up to 17%. This happened despite of heavy spending in infrastructure development almost all throughout India. Credit needs to given when it is due.

@buttofthejoke ok. Do you think the fuel cost incurred by giving free rides will be compensated by the savings in people's pockets? I just wish if you had thought through your reasoning better. Never mind, better luck next time.

@anmolmonga1933 delhi gives 4 times to center than it gets. Where are you pulling this figure out of? I cannot imagine how Delhi generates any money. Most of tax paying folks are in the NCR and Gurgaon region. Also, most of the budget for Delhi is taken care by the centre.

@anmolmonga1933 sorry. I meant yeddy only. I mistook him for Bommai.

@djeaenpgahku lockdown ended more than one year ago. We are importing the highest level of crude from Russia.
