The Delhi government will present its budget today same day that Arial missed his eighth summon by the Delhi government, will be presenting its budget for the 2024 2025 financial year. Finance Minister Ahi there on your screen will present her first budget after being inducted into the Cabinet in March last year. This time, the budget is likely to be based on the concept of Ram Raja. This will be the 10th budget of the AR dispensation. The budget is likely to have provisions for every section of the society in accordance with the principles of Ram Rajaa in the election year. Ray, my colleague, joins me on the phone line for more on this story. Ray, let's first talk about the budget We on our screen we see, uh, pictures of a she the finance minister of Delhi going into the assembly to present her maiden budget. It's a beautiful picture of her presenting the going in with her red book to present the budget. Tell us a little bit about what the government plans to to zoom in on in this, uh, in this budget, given it's an election year and what is this whole concept of Ram rajia that the A A party has come up with Is it is it different from what we've been hearing or in alignment with the central government's terms of RAM? Rajia will present its state budget for Delhi today, with sources saying that the budget will adopt the theme of Ram Raja concept representing ideals of justice, equality and inclusive burden. It has been stated to us that you know this concept of Ram Raj which is adopted this time we take care of all the sections of the society in the election year. It is a who would be presenting its first budget as far as as far as in the Delhi Cabinet, and the reports also suggested that the of unauthorised colonies will be a major focus on this budget. Officials has also indicated that there would be budgetary allocations nearly about €1000 which would be directed towards enhancing infrastructure including growth, water supply pipelines and networks in these colonies. Remember a large part of the population of Delhi live than these unauthorised colonies, and therefore the reason to and the needs of influential voting, which consist of approximately 30% you know, these would be a major focus of the party led the Delhi government's budget and also it would be inculcating the youth of Delhi as well as far as this budget. So clearly it is the presentation which led to a bit of controversy, of a big delay. It was at the party who stated that because of non approval of the MA, G and LG, it was a delay in the presentation. But finally, when it got approved today, it would be additional to presenting it right. There are a couple of interesting things you've said there that the budget will focus on the youth and infrastructure in the unauthorised colonies, which account for 30% of Delhi's vote. Could you tell us a little bit about what kind of infrastructure we are looking at in these colonies that have only 30% of Delhi's vote? Well, Delhi had nearly 1800 of unauthorised colonies, and a critical demographic of the population lives in this area. It has been to us that, you know, water supply pipelines, roads and fever networks are the major problem that these unauthorised colonies suffered and therefore the reason perhaps to uplift and address these needs of the influential voting bloc. The budget would be the major part of the budget would be allocated for this. In fact, the budgetary emphasis on the development is expected to resonate strongly with the electorate as well. There have been several recommendations which had been given earlier to the Delhi government for upliftment of these areas in Delhi. And now when the is about to come in Delhi assembly and being passed by the MH A and LG as well, it would be seen that most of the people of the of the United capital would be happy or there would be there would be, you know, the strong connections. As far as these these developed, these underdeveloped areas are concerned what would be the location in something?
