Dont blame corona for the sluggishness during 2014-2020 period.@Falcon
The Corona Pandemic has badly hurt the Financial Position of the Govt.of India
Last year Fiscal Deficit was 10 percent
And just when economy was recovering , we have this second wave
What ever faults MMS.had , he always said one thing correctly that
" Money does Not Grow on trees "
Dont blame corona for the sluggishness during 2014-2020 period.
When rhe entire world is spending 2-3% of their GDP for defense , how much we are spending for our force? Remember we need to take down two nuclear power simultaneously that too from both eastern & western side.India's requirements for both Development and Defence are always going to be Infinite
Add to it expenses like Subsidies , Poverty Alleviation , PSU Bank Re capitalisation , Toilets etc etc
It is always going to be a Tough Balancing Act
By the Way , I recently met an Ex Colonel who is stuck up at his brother' s place due to Lockdown
He said that if there was UPA govt today , China would have conquered LADAKH
Can someone clear something up?
In the Budget at a Glance (pg 14, title: expenditure of major items), the budget estimates for expenditure in 2022-23 is ₹ 385,370 cr.
In the Ministry-wise Summary of Budget Provisions (pg 2), the revenue allocation is ₹ 364,746.55 cr while the capital allocation is ₹ 160,419.60 cr. If the Defence Pension (₹ 119,696.00 cr) is subtracted from the total estimates (₹ 525,166.15 cr) - the result is ₹ 405,470.15 cr.
So, can anyone explain the ₹ 3.85 lakh cr figure given in the Budget at a Glance?
The navy's received a massive hike in capital budget.
Pls also note that they surrendered some 30% back as unspent sums . I'm not quite sure if that amount has been recycled back .IAF has the maximum Capital Budget at 55 K Crores as compared to 32 K for Army and 47 K for Navy
