Delhi Budget to have 'biggest outlay' for infrastructure projects

According to Delhi government sources, the AAP government's 2023-24 budget, which will be tabled in the assembly, will include "the largest" outlay of capital expenditure for infrastructure projects such as roads and double-decker flyovers. With an increase in tax revenue, the government's budget outlay for 2023-24 could be close to Rs 80,000 crore, they said ahead of the Delhi assembly's Budget Session.

The main focus of Budget 2023-24 will be the Arvind Kejriwal government's plan to beautify and modernise the national capital's infrastructure. "The budget will have the largest capital expenditure for infrastructure projects in the last eight years of the Kejriwal government," a Delhi government source said and added that education and health will also be major focus areas.
