Delhi Government will take development to every house in the national Capital, Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal said and asserted that the budget tabled in the Assembly aims at benefitting all sections of the society, including the middle-class, the poor, women and students.
Lauding the budget proposals presented by his deputy Manish Sisodia, the chief minister, CM said this is the first green budget, under which 26 specific actionable points have been mentioned to reduce pollution levels in the national Capital, and the Government has also fixed a time-line for every project the progress of which will be reviewed by the chief secretary every week.
Responding to a media query on the execution of projects, Kejriwal took a dig at Lieutenant Governor Anil Baijal by saying, “There is a proverb, “Man proposes God disposes”, but here 'Delhi government proposes, L-G disposes”.
Kejriwal said the Government has allotted Rs 1,500 crore for development works in unauthorised colonies.
These colonies play a vital role in deciding the fate of political parties during elections.
“The Delhi Government will take development to every house in Delhi. We will make roads to every house including in unauthorised colonies,” Kejriwal said.
