Man of his words Kejriwal gifts Delhi 20K litres of free water, power at 50% tariff

[deckingraj]

In countries with as appalling poverty as India, socialism would do much better for the welfare of the poor at least. But these people are selfish. They have been infatuated with 'GDP growth rate' and 'Superpower India' that they fail to see the hundreds of millions of poor and their abject suffering, I mean are those poor beggars on the street not human, not Indian, not their 'brothers and sisters'. It's useless talking to them.

What has happened to Socialist countries?? Heck even India was on the verge of bankruptcy...so let's not talk about things which we know fails...if we don't want to learn from other's mistake atleast we should give some importance to our own experience..

Subsidy and all this talks/consideration of poor is all good...however the million dollar question is who is going to pay for it...you have X amount of money...now you need to use this money to add value to lives of people...if you invest a substantial amount of X amount in giving subsidy then you are left with that much less for investing in infra...Lastly even if you want to give subsidy it should be only for those who really need it...90% of Delhi is not below poverty line..

Good that he implemented what he committed.....OP says 90% will be benefited from this decision..... good job

But who is going to pay for this subsidy????? Where is he going to raise the money????



Here no one is that honest.....

Centre have to raise money.If dont ,our freeman will go for a dharna in Jantar Mandir.Cool idea isnt it?

Delhi is well off compared to rest of India. The top 10% Indians think that they live in a rich country and spending money around the world while the poorer 90% Indians are being ignored and live hand to mouth.

this is how it's going to in Delhi from now on! Implementation of freebies.. agitation about intended change in central laws.. & dharnas at the drop of a hat.. a recipe for anarchy!

 

[Abingdonboy]

Here you can simply ask people, nobody hides his/her party association. Kajriwal should do same there, i am sure Modi supporters will be loyal enough not to lie just for couple of freebies. no?

What you are proposing isn't democracy or good governance so please stop. This isn't how any mature democracy functions.

what strange logic!!!

every proper socialist society had its people more comfortable than anytime in post-1947 india.

even the nordic welfare states are richer than india.

why should anyone pay for housing, water, electricity?? only the criminal minded will seek to make himself richer by taxing people for those things.

why should money even exist??

Nordic states have oil and other valuable natural resources and have population range from 1 to 10 million.
What is the population of Delhi ? 1 million ? 2 million?

No 11 million?Do they have any oil well or anything like that ?
If yes we dont have a problem in here.

A population that votes on promised freebies rather than a wealth creating economy is destined to stay poor

By above definition, all Norwegians and swedes must be poor!
Lol

Ya right ?the Why should we clear clothes ?Why cant they walk freely around there?

Indian central government does not transfer enough money to state governments to do their job providing facilities to the people. Indians can not afford high water and electricity bills while the Indian government goes on shopping spree around the world. Delhi is already well financed city what about the poorer parts of India ? Indian farmers were committing suicides when they cannot pay their bills. Indian women being raped when they go outside because there no toilets.

Good .What is your post in Indian Finance Ministry ?Secretary ?Clerk?FM?
No offense you have such brilliant knowledge .That is why I am asked .

The centrality of the dialogue is that the recipients of aid/welfare tend to become poor.
Which is not the fact in Skandinavia.
Oil or no oil is not the issue.

WHERE IS FREE WIFE

Please Remember this is a temporary measure to provide relief to the people of delhi frustrated by power companies over charging the residents, the CAG Audit is in process, after CAG finding, the tariff rates will be amended and then there subsidies, either removed or lowered.
Thanks

Good for dilli walas, But he shouldn't give this facility to ones who voted for BJP.[/QUO

Jan Dhana Yojna is not state specific right? This policy is driven by Central govt and provided to entire nation
Nation means PM, state/UT means CM..Clear?

Its Ok for a PM to give subsidy to the nation and not the CM to its state?
What logic?
@nair

Do you know, what Jan dhan Yojna is

Its about getting people to put money in bank accounts, not give free money
Its more of a means to get money in circulation, which otherwise would be stashed by a poor farmer in a suitcase

 

[Jaat Rock]

Congrats Delhi and India got some burden
