I think it was around 36 billion, IIRC. So that's a 5% increase in dollar terms. In rupee terms, that's a larger percentage increase, due to the devaluation.

Pensions and retirement funds etc. included, right?

$40 billion is a decent number.

I believe it's to be constructed in Princess Park which is pretty far from Central Delhi. This sucks!!

But one rank, one pension gets a thumbs up!!
