The allocation for the Government of National Capital Territory of Delhi (GNCTD) in the Union Budget 2024-25, presented in the Lok Sabha on Tuesday, remained stagnant at Rs 1,168 crore, the same amount allotted in 2023-24.
The AAP government’s Finance minister Atishi lashed at the BJP saying no money was given to Delhi neither as share in central taxes, nor as financial assistance to the Municipal Corporation of Delhi (MCD) despite the city paying Rs 2.32 lakh crore to the central pool.
The transfer to Delhi from the Union home ministry included Rs 1,168 crore under the revenue head and Rs 0.01 crore under the capital head, showed the Budget document tabled in the Lok Sabha.
In the 2022-23 Budget, Delhi was allocated Rs 960 crore. The amount was increased to Rs 1,168.01 crore in 2023-24 and it remains the same for 2024-25.
There were no grants in lieu of its share in central taxes and duties for Delhi. It was Rs 325 crore in the 2022-23 Budget.
