Delhi Finance Minister Atishi
Delhi Finance Minister Atishi on July 19 demanded ₹10,000 crore from the Central Government for infrastructure development, claiming the city government got nothing in return over the past year despite its income tax contribution of ₹2 lakh crore.
Delhi also provided ₹25,000 crore as central GST to the pool of taxes, the minister said during a press conference here.
Ahead of the presentation of annual budget of the Central Government, Atishi batted for release of more money to Delhi, saying it could be spent on infrastructure development in road, transport and power sectors as well as to beautify the city.
She said that since 2001, the government had been paying only ₹325 crore to the Delhi government from the central pool of taxes. However, even this payment was stopped last year, and now the city receives not a single rupee.
